FASTCHECKER FC01 DATASHEET:
FASTCHECKER FC01 is a laboratory instrument for evaluating the performance of a UHF tag. It provides important information that is hidden when using a conventional UHF reader. The FASTCHECKER FC01 is not a traditional RFID reader. It does not perform the functions of a reader and thus cannot operate as such. It serves to make tag performance comparisons when applied to different products delivering results across a limited band of 902-928 MHz frequency spectrum. This shows whether the tag is at its maximum sensitivity within the range that a traditional reader will work out. This cannot be evaluated using a traditional reader - this is the main function of FASTCHECKER FC01. Easy to connect via a USB cable, its operation is very simple via a computer using the FASTCHECKER FC01 control software. Product Marketing What are included The FASTCHECKER FC01 was developed and is marketed by MB Engenharia (Michel Normanha Bardauil ME) www.mb-engenharia.com through the site www.getfasttag.com. Sales are given to UHF RFID companies and RFID professionals. FASTCHEKER FC01 unit Wideband Dipole Antenna USB Cable Flash Drive with Fastchecker Software (FC01 software) 10 dB Attenuator Highlights Compact size Frequency coverage from 800 to 1000 MHz or from 840 MHz to 960 MHz Self-Licensing Function Powered by USB port RoHs compatible (lead free and other harmful components) Antenna Check Thermal protection Shows the power to reach the operating threshold for each frequency. Test plan setup - manually set maximum power and start and end frequencies Auto function saves the test data Maximum 50% duty cycle during testing Product Operation For each frequency from 902-928 MHz in 0.25, 1, 5 or 10 MHz jumps it determines the minimum power required for full conversation between the FASTCHECKER FC01 and the tag using the EPC C1G2
/ ISO18000-6C communication protocol. As an example, the figure below shows the result of the analysis of 3 different tags by FASTCHECKER FC01. The graphs show the minimum power required to access the tag (threshold) as well as the backscattered power value of each of the measurements taken. The execution time of a tag test is approximately 1 minute. Item Technical Data 5 50 20 902-928 0.25 ; 1 ; 5 or 10 25 27 1 EPC C1G2/ISO18000-6C USB

two conditions:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Warning: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
