The 1166 Bluetooth® Rugged UHF RFID Reader builds on TSL’s rich portfolio of mobile UHF readers by providing equally high levels of performance in an extra-tough form factor. The reader is waterproof and dustproof (IP68 sealing) and has a two metre drop specification. A high capacity battery enables up to 20 hours of run time.
The reader is compatible with Bluetooth® enabled host devices including Enterprise Handhelds, Consumer Phones, Touchscreen MP3 players, Tablets and PC’s – the 1166 will bring high performance RFID and 2D scanning to all these devices running a wide range of Operating Systems.
Extensive software support is available for a wide range of platforms including code samples, demonstration applications and source code.
The new 1166 Rugged Bluetooth® UHF RFID reader incorporates TSL’s unique ASCII protocol for faster and easier application development. This sophisticated parameterised ASCII protocol provides the developer a powerful set of commands that carry out multiple actions locally within the reader. This approach enables multiple tag operations executed using simple pre-configured ASCII commands which not only speeds integration of the reader into applications but also abstracts the developer from some of the complexities of the underlying Native API and ultimately results in un-paralleled levels of performance.
