Read Point

about read points are powerful rfid sensors that can be mounted almost anywhere to track rfid tags passing through the sensors range the most common configurations include doorway mounted portals that track the movement of tags in and out of the room, and ceiling or wall mounted portals that track the sighting of tags in a particular location model ts090 read point variations, ts087 directional read point when used in read point mode commands you can send the following commands to a read point via jetstream name supported get device status docid 0r9xzn3hnqid911qs3wxg yes sync device

of the read point, where the desired behavior is to report any tags within its read range as 'seen' terso will provide different recommended defaults if the read point is wall mounted, installed at a dock door, being used to explicitly track item removal, or configured in some other novel way to suit your requirements and environment the following are the parameters that can be configured for a read point via policy available parameters may differ by firmware version to configure your own devices via jetstream, configuring a device policies & parameters docid\ x4p9x9tuutzz9n6fs7jt terso

read point are not listed here as those jetstream generated events do not vary by device type see the event entry in the glossary docid\ k wnsotemg6 ggtqd 6gs to see a complete list of which events are from a device and which come from the jetstream application name supported notes aggregateevent docid\ atqjfemfm4z9hitjaiepk yes by default, the readpoint will only return "adds" in its aggregate events "removes" can be enabled by setting the removeevent config parameter to 1 passrfid parameter will always be blank, since the read point does not have a pass reader commandcompletionevent docid\

logentryevents may be sent when logentrylevel = error name description lowflashmemory lowflashmemory occurs when the read point has less than 25% flash memory lowmemory lowmemory occurs when the read
