Escort Memory Systems Introduces Handheld RFID PDA

06 March, 2006
SILVERJET RFID PDA handheld device is compatible with a wide range of RFID tags. The JET takes advantage of Wi-Fi technology to permit remote, portable scanning of RFID tags in the factory or warehouse, and on-the-spot writing of important manufacturing data to the tag”. It comes with Jet Applications Software to support easy creation of Tag Read and Write programs.

SCOTTS VALLEY, CA, — Escort Memory Systems today announces the SILVERJET™ RFID PDA handheld RFID solution for factory automation. With the introduction of the SILVERJET™ RFID PDA, Escort Memory Systems has developed the Jet Applications Software, included with every SILVERJET™ package, to support easy creation of Tag Read and Write programs. JetBuilder™ Software runs on a Windows® desktop PC and provides an intuitive interface for developing custom programs for reading and writing tag data. These programs are then transferred by Wi-Fi or USB to the Jet PDA, where they are executed by JetRunner™ Software. Tag data is scanned from the tags and stored under the familiar Windows® file system on the SILVERJET™.

Unique tag-specific data can be written to each tag through the JetRunner™ interface.Escort Memory Systems President and CEO, Luciano Mattioli, describing the new SILVERJET™ says, “Escort Memory Systems supplies the most advanced HF RFID solutions in the world. The SILVERJET RFID PDA compliments our industry-leading CobaltHF family of industrial RFID equipment with a rugged, handheld RFID device that is compatible with a wide range of RFID tags. The JET takes advantage of Wi-Fi technology to permit remote, portable scanning of RFID tags in the factory or warehouse, and on-the-spot writing of important manufacturing data to the tag”. The SILVERJET™ RFID PDA is designed for read and write operations supporting all ISO 15693 passive tags.

These include the Escort Memory Systems LRP series of durable tags as well as tags from Phillips and Texas Instruments based on ISO 15693. Unlike other developing RFID standards such as the EPCglobal™ UHF standards, the HF standards (ISO 15693) have been in use for several years and have the track record of stability essential to meeting your project schedule and costs while insuring the end user a return on their investment. The SILVERJET™ RFID PDA solution from Escort Memory Systems is now the benchmark for handheld RFID system performance in the industry.
