Introduction
RFind Systems, Inc. is an Active RTLS RFID Technology Company. With tag to tag
communications technology, RFind produces Real Time Locating System (RTLS)
solutions for industry clients who have the need to locate and track important assets.
This guide describes how to use the RFind T400 active RFID tag. The RFind T400 RFID
tag is primarily used for locating assets in a warehouse, yard, or finished goods area. By
attaching the tag to an item of interest known as an asset, when used in conjunction with
one or more readers and the RFind Expeditor2DTM software package, the asset can be
located. RFind Systems has changed the game of affordable RTLS (Real-Time Locating
Systems).
The T400 Mode Asset Tag is the 1st key component of the 18000-7 Active 433MHz
RFID Technology hardware architecture comprising our Expeditor 2DTM Asset Location
System Solution.
Robust communications ability, as well as power saving features afford application
flexibility and extended operational lifetime and performance.
Tag Overview
The T400 tag can be utilized in one of two different operational modes: Location marker
and Asset. Location marker tags are placed at known locations in your facility while
asset tags are then attached to items which you wish to locate. Using a proprietary
algorithm asset tags will automatically perform a locating sequence and forwards that
information over 18000-7 protocol to reader(s) so that the system can report on the tags’
location.
System Overview
When attached to an asset, the T400 tag transmits a broadcast message while it is
moving. When the asset enters an area and comes to a stop, it initiates a series of
communication events with reference location tags. The T400 tag then transmits the
results of this communication up to the server via a reader also known as gateway.

Once this communication is complete the T400 tag goes to a stationary power saving
state and begins transmitting its heartbeat if turned on.
Finally, the T400 tag may also operate in an idle state. This user-initiated state forces the
tag to stop all periodic and motion activated transmissions and goes into an RF quiet
mode until a user sends a command to the tag to exit the idle state. This is desirable for
applications requiring assets to travel in RF quiet zones.

Installation
The tag’s back surface is suitable for applying adhesives, magnets, hook and loop
fasteners, or double-sided tape to facilitate other methods of mounting the Tags to Assets.
For additional mounting flexibility, a mounting bracket is available. The bracket allows
the tag to be easily removed and replaced during battery replacement.
Deployment
The tags, either Asset Tags or Location markers, are factory configured during
manufacturing.
Presented here are some tips for different deployment types which can be used as a guide
when preparing for a deployment at your site.
I want to:
Know roughly where an asset is in my facility. Then you should place your
Location Marker tags:
Up high to get as much coverage as possible
In a rectangular pattern where the Asset tag can reasonably be expected to be
inside the boundary of a group of Reference tags

Out of the way of objects which could interfere with transmissions from the Asset
tags to the Reference tags. Objects such as metal shelving units or metal sheeting
can have unexpected effects on radio transmissions.
You should configure your Reference tags to use a relatively high transmit power.
I want to:
Know exactly what area (paint station or carpentry station) my assets are in.
You should place your Reference tags:
As close to the center of your stations as possible
As far apart from one another as possible
Close to the ground to restrict transmission range
You should configure your Reference tags to use a relatively low transmit power.
