The Elatec TWN4 Multitech 2 HF reader enables users to read and write almost all 13.56 MHz RFID tags and labels. It supports all common transponders from suppliers such as ATMEL, EM-, ST, NXP, TI, etc., and ISO standards such as ISO14443A/B (T = CL), ISO15693, and ISO18092/ECMA-340 (NFC). NFC is supported by Android smartphones with OS version 4.3 or higher.
The reader offers a powerful API that enables system integrators and solution providers to develop complex applications that can be run directly on the reader. Furthermore, these applications, as well as custom configurations, can be wirelessly transferred to the reader without removing it from the current infrastructure. This can be achieved by using a TWN4 configuration card and is a time-saving feature in large projects.
The new generation is a direct extension of the successful TWN3 family. All host communication can be carried out via USB, RS232, or serial TTL interface.
