Speedway Revolution Express™ is enterprise caliber, RFID Middleware platform designed specifically for the Impinj Speedway Revolution and Speedway xPortal RFID Readers.
As middleware, Speedway Revolution Express™ sits between the RFID Readers at the edge of enterprise and business level applications such as Inventory, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), or third party systems. Speedway Revolution Express™ manages and controls the RFID readers while conducting the flow of RFID data between the RFID device and business level systems.
In the past, building and deploying UHF RFID systems required a high degree of expertise. This changed forever when Impinj announced the release of the Speedway Revolution RFID reader with 'AutoPilot', a new generation of self-tuning, self-optimizing UHF RFID readers. AutoPilot allows the RFID reader to dynamically adjust its settings while running in the operating environment to optimize its performance. This removes the need for an RF engineer to configure and deploy the RFID equipment.
In the same way that this new generation of RFID readers makes RFID technology available to everybody, Speedway Revolution Express™ makes it easy to get started using the RFID reader the moment it arrives, 'Out of the Box'. Speedway Revolution Express™ automatically discovers each device when it is powered up and makes it possible to work with and read tags from multiple RFID readers simultaneously.
"The Speedway Revolution RFID reader is the first device which makes RFID technology available to the masses, not just the RFID experts.
Speedway Revolution Express™ is the software platform which brings it to life."
- James Snyder, RFID Solutions, Inc.
Speedway Revolution Express™ features a proactive Device Monitor which automatically detects and notifies administrators if a device goes offline. The Device Monitor will detect when the device comes back online and automatically restarts the device actively reading tags.
Speedway Revolution Express™ includes a Software Development Kit (SDK) and a rich Component Model. The SDK allows external applications to communicate with and programmatically control the server while the Component Model allows third party developers to create application specific code and 'plug' it into the system. Speedway Revolution Express™ ships with samples code which demonstrate how to take advantage of these features. In addition, Speedway Revolution Express™ ships with a 'SQL Adapter' which allows RFID tag data to be written a SQL database.
Speedway Revolution Express™ was designed to be lightweight, fast and without dependencies on other applications. The only prerequisites are the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 or higher and one of the following Windows Operating Systems:
- Windows 7
- Windows Vista
- Windows XP
- Windows Server 2008
- Windows Server 2003
While Speedway Revolution Express™ contains a 'SQL Adapter', Microsoft SQL Server is not required unless you want to use the adapter. Speedway Revolution Express™ works well Microsoft SQL Server Express which is the FREE version of SQL Server.
Key Features:
- Automatic and Manual Device Discovery
- Manage and Control Multiple Devices
- Proactive Device Monitor
- Real Time Tag Monitor
- Read, Write, Lock / Unlock, Kill RFID Tags
- Tag Filters at the Reader Level
- Tag Directionality
- Software Development Kit (SDK)
