September 20, 2007 - Minneapolis, Minn. — TURCK Inc. introduces a new handheld unit to program data carriers within its new BL ident RFID system. Read and write operations are easily programmed to the data carriers at any location with the handheld unit. The data is then displayed on an illuminated touch screen (in decimal, binary, hexadecimal and ASCII code) where it may be edited and written to the appropriate data carrier as required.
The BL ident handheld operates with Microsoft Windows CE, making data transfer as simple as exporting a Microsoft Excel file. A WLAN connection allows the BL ident handheld to transfer data directly to a SPC or PC, regardless of the location. This means that the data is always available—even when the automated system is standing still. The handheld unit also offers automatic read operations, comparison of data records, definition of password protected areas and optional WLAN, Bluetooth and GPRS features. TURCK is an industry leader providing superior quality sensing, connectivity and network products to help manufacturers improve their automated processes.
