摘要:
The present invention generally comprises an apparatus that allows an RFID antenna to obtain information from an RFID tag mounted on a container. The apparatus reproduces the RF field generated by the antenna to a location proximate to the RFID tag. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a pickup device and a reproduction device electrically coupled with the pickup device. In another embodiment, the apparatus comprises at least one magnetic rod, which creates a magnetic path for the RF field to travel between the antenna and the RFID tag. In another embodiment, the apparatus comprises a pickup antenna and a reproduction antenna for transmitting the RF signal from the antenna proximate to the RFID tag.

摘要:
The present invention provides a data collection and diagnostic system. The system, in one embodiment includes a data acquisition device that receives messages and alarm signals from each automation component controller. The system stores the messages and alarm signals received from each automation component controller and distributes the messages and alarm signals to a user—either locally or remotely. The system includes a configuration tool for selecting which messages and alarms signals are stored in a user accessible database. Multiple users may simultaneously access the information stored on the database or in real time over a network—either by a physical communication line or wirelessly.
