Integrated Antenna or up to 2 external Antenna Ports
DThe RFID BLUEBOX CX Series is available in 3 versions. BLUEBOX CX MR IA is equipped with an integrated antenna. BLUEBOX CX LR 1CH has one external antenna port for an TNC-female antenna. The RFID reader BLUEBOX CX LR 2CH has two antenna ports for up to 2 TNC-female antennas.
Industrial Interface Options for a wide range of Applications
There is a wide range of industrial interfaces to choose from: RS232/485, CANbus (SAE J1939 or CANopen) or Wiegand. Real-time transmission of ongoing processes in the automotive, medical technology or agricultural sectors can be handled perfectly with the CANbus port. The RS232/485 interface option has been specially developed for direct machine control. Wiegand is a port for the identification and evaluation of control data.
Identification and Assignment of Attachments on Tractors
The BLUEBOX CX RFID Reader Series can be used for the identification of attachments on tractors in agriculture. The RFID antenna is mounted on the gripping arm of the vehicle. It identifies various external parts with attached RFID transponder such as excavator bucket or drills. Next to the steering wheel is mounted a control system controller.
The transponder contains data on the attached part and transports it with the antenna on the gripper arm to the control system. The data is sent to the central control system by real-time transmission via the CANbus interface.
Control of Industrial Equipment and Machinery

The control of industrial devices, sensors, monitors and machines in IoT environments is possible by means of the serial RS232 interface. RS232 allows the direct control of industrial devices without the need for software support. With the help of RFID, the analysis of faulty controls is possible. This minimises the reject rate within productions.
The use of the BLUEBOX controller is a power-saving solution thanks to the adjustable output power with the help of the supplied demo software.
Measurement of Fuel Consumption of Harbour Tugs
The BLUEBOX CX is suitable for measuring and monitoring fuel consumption on ships. Special RFID tags are attached to specific areas on the ship. The BLUEBOX CX LR 1CH is mounted in the technical cabin. An associated RFID antenna is attached to a special antenna device.
The tag IDs are read by the on-board management software and related to an appropriate area, which is graphically displayed to the skipper and sent to a remote back-end server. The information on the mounted RFID tags is combined and evaluated with other information such as fuel consumption.
