Introduction

The AeroScout T3 tag is a key component of the AeroScout Visibility
System. The T3 tag is a small, flat, Wi-Fi, active RFID device that enables
the wireless network infrastructure to locate assets not connected to a
wireless network. The tag can be attached to mobile equipment such as
vehicles in parking lots, inventory in a manufacturing line, containers,
forklifts and medical equipment in hospitals. The tag can also be used to
track people - security personnel hospital patients, and many more.

T3 Tag Features

Flat-Form Factor

The AeroScout T3 tag is lightweight, flat device that can easily be
incorporated into existing equipment and concealed, and can be
comfortably carried by people.

Flexible Mounting and Usage Options

The tag is supplied with a variety of mounting options. It can be mounted
on flat hard surfaces using special holes for screws, adhesive tape or Velcro.
It can be mounted on cylindrical forms (such as poles) using tie-wraps. It
can be hanged on a pocket using a badge clip, or on the carrier’s neck using
a band. An optional cradle is also available, enabling the indirect mounting
of the tag on various assets.

Call Buttons

T3 tags include two call buttons, a large one and a small one, that can be
configured to send standard tag messages when the buttons are pressed or
released.
