RFID components
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is used in the station to track and detect carriers. RFID-equipped car-
riers include RFID antennae for tracking throughout the pneumatic tube system. The Nexus Station is
equipped with an antenna at the top of each of the five carrier positions on the carousel. At the top, front of
the carousel assembly are two primary transformers that connect to the RFID reader board, which connects
to the main control board.
The first photo shows an overhead view of the electronic components at the top, front of the station.
with the RFID components highlighted. The second shows close-up views of the transponders and reader
board.
