Advanced Domino Tag

Logistics Insight Asia - New Products, 18/1/2008

An internal lithium battery powers the Wavetrend L-series of Active Tags. The Domino Tag will, for the duration of its life, transmit a Radio Frequency (RF) signal at a pre-set time interval.

The Tag life is estimated at 5 years at a transmission time interval of approximately 1.5 seconds. The lifespan of the Tag ends when the battery life is exhausted. Battery status can be inferred by interrogating the internal Tag Age Counter Value. The transmitted Tag data could include Customer Site Code (CSC), Tag ID, Tag Age Counter Value, Movement Alarm and Tamper Alarm status.

For protection against adverse environmental conditions, Wavetrend Tags are encapsulated in a moulded plastic case, which is ultrasonically sealed during the manufacturing process.

The Domino Tag is generally used for asset tagging. The mounting and affixing of a Tag depends on the type of application. The standard method is by VHB type double-sided adhesive tape. Wavetrend Tags can be mounted on a variety of non-metallic items. Where permanent fixing is required, VHB double-sided tape is used (L-TA400).
