• Reader protection against various fault conditions as e.g. antenna shortcut, antenna
mismatching and electrostatic discharge.
• Tough, solid aluminium die case housing for rough environments.
• Quick installation due to easy access to the interfaces and antenna ports.
• Indication of read events via 4 separate reading point LEDs.
• Various I/Os suit industrial needs
• Robust M12 and M8 connectors
• following the EN50155

The base set of commands and features are compatible with the commands used throughout
the product line. The configuration possibilities of the Ha-VIS RFID RF-R400 make it easy to
adapt the reader to a wide range of applications by software and hardware configurations.
The reader has three hardware interface ports: Ethernet, RS232 and USB. Furthermore, the
reader has digital I/O's for direct control of various trigger possibilities and various outputs for a
direct control of several indi-cators.
