TransCore’s Encompass® 1 Rugged (E1R) combines TransCore’s mobile radio frequency identification (RFID) technology with a ruggedized tablet computer, creating a powerful tool for all of your data collection needs. The E1R is also widely used as an AAR Reader and Android-based AAR programmer for railway RFID and AEI field operations.
The E1R offers 915MHz and 870MHz RFID variants for global compatibility. Whether working in hot, dusty conditions or cold, damp weather, this rugged Android AAR Reader is designed to withstand some of the harshest working environments.
In hazardous locations, the optional Class 1, Division 2 rated unit offers the same durability in a non-incendive package.
The E1R provides WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and 4G wireless connections for interfacing with a variety of networks and peripheral devices. The tablet also offers USB and RS232 ports for added convenience.
The E1R is ideal for mobile RFID solutions, including AEI for railyard management, remote and field programming, AAR tag programming, railway RFID maintenance, toll plaza and HOT enforcement, parking/access control, and warehouse management.
