ALIEN READER PROTOCOL

The Alien Reader Protocol gives RFID users a well-equipped toolkit for implementing effective RFID solutions. Using the Alien command set, Alien readers deliver the power and flexibility that software professionals and solutions engineers need.

Human-readable, intuitively-designed commands simplify application development, speeding the delivery of results to users. A well-documented software development kit (SDK) with sample code in Java, .NET and Visual Basic serves as a model for the development of custom software.

The Alien Reader Protocol provides:

• Autonomous and interactive operating modes
• Buffered, streaming and interactive data communication methods
• Configurable data formats
• Extensive filtering and collection controls
• Integrated tag and I/O data
• Radio controls to optimize reading and programming performance

Users control Alien Technology readers through software API, terminal, web-based control panel or Alien Gateway RFID software, shown here.
