Reader
The Encompass 4H Reader System consists of an input/output (I/O) module, a power
supply, a reader logic board (also called a tag decoder), a radio frequency (RF) trans-
mitter/receiver (called the RF module), and a patch antenna.

How It Works
The Encompass 4H Reader System directs the RF module to generate an RF signal,
which is broadcast through the integrated antenna. Entering the Encompass 4H Reader
System’s reading range, a TransCore RFID tag installed on a vehicle or other object to
be tracked adds its programmed identification information to the signal and reflects
the signal back to the Encompass 4H Reader System. The Encompass 4H Reader Sys-
tem receives this modified, or modulated signal, and decodes the tag data carried by
the reflected signal and transmits this data to a local host computer for processing.
