Powerful Application Tools
The Intellitag Developer's Kit (IDK) provides the licensee with
software, hardware, documentation and training for application
development for a single workstation.
Reader Simulator
The reader simulator included with the kit emulates a full-featured
Intellitag reader running as a background server on the workstation.
Rich Command Set
Included with Intermec's IDK are flexible commands to take advantage
of the full power of Intellitag readers. The kit fully supports
the ANS NCITS 256-1999 standard for RFID item management.
Fully Functional Sample Demo Software
The demonstration programs of the IDK illustrate the read/write
capabilities of the Intellitag system and include functional examples
of RFID application coding in C ++ and Visual Basic.
Reader and Tag Inserts
Intermec's IDK provides RFID tags reader and antennas for system
design and development.
Kit Contents
915 MHz Kit:
FCC Part 15 certified readers
Antennas and cables
RFID Inserts
33 x 105 x 3 mm (1.30 x 4.13 x .12 in) tag package on rigid base
2450 MHz Kit:
FCC Part 15 certified reader
Antennas and cables
RFID Inserts
10 x 60 x .5 mm (.39 x 2.36 x .02 in) insert package on thin base
for non-metallic mounting applications
6 x 30 x .5 mm (.24 x 1.18 x .02 in) insert package on thin base
for non-metallic mounting applications
Application-specific RFID inserts and tags can be developed when
size and read range constraints differ from the inserts and tag
above.
Intellitag Reader Simulator Software: Simulates
Intellitag reader functionality.
Intellitag Demonstration Software: Includes
sample codewritten in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and Visual Basic
using the Intellitag API.
Intellitag Programmer's API: Full support of
the ANS NCITS 256 1999 item management standard. Supports Microsoft
Windows 95, 98, and NT.
RFID Insert and Tag features
Memory:
EEPROM
Byte boundary memory addressing.
Byte boundary memory lock.
1024 bits total memory 96 bits are reserved for factory and system
parameters and locked at the factory; 928 bits are user memory
formatted and locked as required by the application.
Communications
Anticollision Protocol: Efficient, binary tree
type anticollision algorithm. Scan rate is effectively linear
at up to 40 tags per second, regardless of the number of tags
in the field.
Software Features
Data Rate: Read 8 bytes of data from a tag in
less than 32 milliseconds. Write a single byte of data to a tag
in less than 1 second.
Multitag Access: User-specified groups within
a population of tags can be selected, read from, and/or written
to using multitag access commands.
Environmental
Operating Temperature: 0ºC to +50ºC (-32ºF to +122ºF)
Storage Temperature: -20ºC to +70ºC (+4ºF to +157ºF)
Read/Write Performance
Read/write performance varies with RFID inserts, tags, and antenna
configurations. Sample single antenna configuration is illustrated
below.
Read/Write Ranges: Write ranges are approximately
70% of the effective read ranges of the RFID inserts and tag.
Read Range Examples: Ranges are listed below
for RFID inserts and tag using frequency-hopping FCC unlicensed
operation reader and a single demo antenna.
1.25 Meters (4.1 ft): 2.45 MHz 10 x 60 x .5 mm
(.39 x 2.36 x .02 in) RFID insert
0.9 Meters (2.9 ft): 2.45 MHz 6 x 30 x .5 mm
(.24 x 1.18 x .02 in) RFID insert
3.5 Meters (11.48 ft): 915 MHz 33 x 105 x 3 mm
(1.30 x 4.13 x .12 in) tag
