R3 Interface
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Combination Interface and Reader Model 400x (thousand) series

  • This Interface/Reader combo unit requires only a Read Head to complete the system. Operating at 12 VDC, these do offer a slightly lesser read range in a more convenient 2 piece Read Station solution.
  • Although the Model 4003E operates on an input of 24 VDC, this is ramped down to 12 VDC for operation and thus mimics the read range specifications of its sister units.
  • Approximate size is 4.75" x 4.75" x 2"

The 8 character Models 4002E and 4003E are designed to achieve reads at very high speeds, actual Tag speeds to 100 mph.
Processing speeds from Tag to serial port are:

  • Models 4002E, 4003E, 4004E worst case is 23.4 ms and best case is 11.7 ms
  • Models 4000E, 4001E, 4039E worst case is 46.7 ms and best case is 23.4 ms


Common specifications:


  • Temperature:
    RS-232-C operating –40 to +55 degrees C
    RS-422-A operating 0 to +55 degrees C
    Both non-operating –55 to +85 degrees C
  • Packaged by watertight polycarbonate
  • CRC algorithm allows only 1 in 10 to the 14th errors
  • Automatic power up and self test message
  • Approximate size is 4.75" x 4.75" x 2"
