| iBR9000™
The iBR9000
is the newest in a family of iButton readers from Videx. Small and
lightweight, yet extremely durable, iBR9000 is ideal for use in any
checkpoint application where you need to know who was there, and when
they were there.
iBR9000 easily fits on a keyring, in a pocket,
or on a lanyard. Its light weight and ergonomic design make it easy to
hold in the hand and read iButtons—no more heavy readers prone to drops
and damage!
The high-impact fiberglass-reinforced nylon case provides exceptional protection to the electronics inside, and the read head is made of stainless steel. This reader easily withstands repeated six-foot drops.
The
“9000” part of the name refers to the number of iButton reads the
iBR9000 stores in memory between downloads to the computer. Transferring
this stored data is easy: iBR9000 makes an infrared connection directly
to an infrared port on a laptop, to our USB-to-infrared device called the IR Encoder, or even to a Windows Mobile PDA cell phone in the field.
With
each read of an iButton, iBR9000 beeps, flashes an LED, and stores the
data in memory with a date and time stamp. iBR9000 is powered by a CR2
3-volt lithium battery just like those in a camera, which means the
batteries are inexpensive, easy to find, and easy to replace in the
field. The memory in the reader is non-volatile, so you will not lose
stored data if the battery is removed. A single battery will last as
long as one year, or provide over 75,000 continuous reads, before
needing replacement.
Two software solutions are available for
iBR9000: a desktop version and a server version. The desktop version
runs on a PC or Mac, and is the best option for managing a single
system. The server version can be accessed over the internet, and is
ideal for managing multiple clients as a service.
Whatever
your iButton application—guard tour, inspections, preventive
maintenance rounds, route tracking, or field data collection—iBR9000 can
do it!

PulseStar®
PulseStar is designed for the harshest environments. It’s ideal for security rounds, inspections, preventive maintenance checks, or any time you need to track people, items, locations, and activities.
Working outdoors in the rain? PulseStar’s cylindrical metal case is sealed against dirt and moisture. You can take it outdoors in a rainstorm, or to a dirty, dusty shop floor, without worry—it will still perform. Indoors or outdoors, PulseStar can handle it!
Working in a high-noise environment? Or in an area where any noise would be a disruption? PulseStar indicates a successful read not with a tone, but with a pulse. Only the user gets immediate feedback on a good read—perfect for use on a factory floor, or in the quiet halls of a hospital.
Need something more durable than bar codes? Or need to be absolutely certain the person was at the job? PulseStar is a portable data collector that reads iButtons. iButtons are small, durable metal canisters that contain a unique ID number that cannot be duplicated. You can assign the button to represent a person, a location, an item, or even an action.
When PulseStar touches a button, the button’s unique ID is stored in the reader’s memory with date and time. When the work is done, the reader is returned to a docking station. PulseStar communications software for the PC transfers the data from the reader to the computer.
PulseStar–Data collection for the toughest environments!
