About

RFID Handheld Readers are Jetstream enabled devices used to track and locate field or mobile inventory. The devices do not offer sensor reading events or log entry events, since they only communicate with Jetstream when being operated by a trained user. However, their unique use of Aliases functionality enables them to report the inventory at any number of Jetstream-configured locations, delivering unprecedented inventory tracking capabilities in a small form-factor. The handheld only works with Jetstream v3, where Aliases were first introduced. To learn more, visit https://www.tersosolutions.com/products/rfid-handheld-reader/.
