The prediction of RFID signal waves along with identifying signal interference in your physical layout requires unique surveying. A site survey is always a precursor to optimize the effectiveness of your asset tracking solution. Most site surveys are conducted through both consultation and third party inspection of your physical domain that includes the measurement of dimensional relationships, horizontal distances, elevations, directions, and angles. However, rarely is there a software platform that provides a tool that is designed specifically for site surveying from a pre-existing computer aided design of your physical domain. ProxiTrak©'s technological break-through in RFID software provides a management utility that, regardless of the reader, medium and antenna technology used, allows distance measuring through RSSI (indicator of signal strength) and rotation alignment functionality.

ProxiTrak© software will ascertain the obstructions, hindrances and interference from walls, doors, metal, emf, glasses and other obstacles that either introduce or change the degrees of attenuation affecting your RFID radiation pattern. If you decide to use external consultation to perform your RFID site survey ProxiTrak© software will be instrumental in fostering the examination and recording the crucial areas of a site.

No need for third party measuring devices and tools because ProxiTrak© provides the means for you to measure and optimize your tracking area RFID radio signals at any distance in all directions.

ProxiTrak©'s site management functionality drastically reduces the survey cost when your site's physical or conceptual layout changes by decreasing the time it takes to gather pertinent information and data to determine the number and placement of RFID readers, antennas and supporting infrastructure such as power sources and LAN configurations. The result is your site survey decisions are expeditious because you will always be able to maximize the effectiveness of your RFID environment as your previous optimization design will be the baseline for any changes that require a new site survey.

Proxitrak©'s software signal ranging and optimization features are instrumental in providing guidance on RFID reader placement and, in addition, helps you analyze and understand the categories of assets that need to be tagged and the environment in which they operate. Our optimization functionality will ensure optimized RFID reader locations; analyzing such factors as power availability, RFID signal strength, and the presence of ambient electromagnetic noise (AEN) that could interfere with the RFID environment.

ProxiTrak© identifies optimal locations for the RFID tags on all your assets, as well as the optimal locations for readers so the RFID processes work 100% of the time.

ProxiTrak© provides the ability to configure and operate various modes that facilitate automated monitoring and processing of tag data. Based on your selection of specific programmed configuration commands that instruct the reader on how and when to read tags and optionally process the tag data. By choosing auto mode your RFID environment will be fully automated. ProxiTrak© will listen for notification messages from the RFID reader containing any tag data that has been interrogated and push it in real-time to the web browser.

The primary advantage to this mode of operation is that multiple RFID reader devices are configured to push tag messages to a the Proxitrak© host which in turns relays the data in real-time on a distributed network. ProxiTrak© has the ability to listen for and process data from multiple readers over a wired/wireless network.

ProxiTrak© can issue commands and interact with all types of RFID readers using two different communication methods: serial (RS-232) and Telnet (TCP/IP).

Discriminate IDs of multiple tags in the field at the same timeRead/Write to specific tag, selective group, or whole field of tags.

Send a single command over the air to all and any tags Address a subset of tags in the field
