Employers are more security conscious than ever.
More
buildings, machines, systems,
and
applications require identification information
to
gain access. RF
IDeas devices allow
the building
access cards
to
be used as a digital identifier throughout
the workplace.

The diagram on
the
following page
is
a high level overview
of how the
reader
works.
The
reader
sends
RF signals
to the
card and
the
card sends signals back
to
send
data.
The card data
is output by
the
reader
in
keystrokes
or
ASCII characters. This card data can be configured
to
include
delimiters
to
separate
the data.
This reader can be used as a standalone system
or
seamlessly integrated
with
other software applications
using
the
optional

Kit (SDK).
