The modular 1-wire ID-Button reader features an easy to install and easy to use 1-Wire ID-Button reader with controllable LED indicator. The modular 1-Wire ID-Button reader are delivered with a RJ-45 connector for easy connection to the modular 1-Wire network via a combiner or splitter allowing easy installation in any application. The ID-Button reader offers a way to uniquely identify persons or items equipped with ID-buttons.
The communication between the RTCU unit and the ID-Button reader is done through the 1-Wire interface, requiring a single data wire, a ground to establish the data connection, an extra wire is dedicated for controlling the LED present in the ID-Button reader. No external power supply is needed as the ID-Button reader derives power directly from the 1-wire bus simplifying application set-up. From the RTCU application reading an ID-Button and controlling the LED indicator is easily done with function call. IDButtons with on-board non-volatile memory is also available for storing data directly in the ID-Button.
