1. General
The Nexmosphere XR-2 RFID drivers offer read and write functionalities for NTAG213 RFID tags. This document provides
explanation of the available functionalities and instructions on how to install and integrate the sensor into your digital signage
installation.
The information in this document is created for users who are familiar with the Nexmosphere API and are able to control a
basic setup with a Nexmosphere API controller. If this is not the case yet, please read the general documentation on the
Nexmosphere serial API first.
2. Product overview
The XR-2 RFID drivers are available in two models: XR-DR2 and XR-DW2. Both drivers are compatible with all RFID antennas
from the Nexmosphere XR Range.

To create an RFID sensor, an XR antenna needs to be connected to an XR-2 driver. The XR-2 driver can then be connected
to one of Nexmosphere's Xperience controllers using a CAX-M4W (60cm) or CAX-M6W (180cm) X-talk cable. The driver
creates an electromagnetic field on the XR antenna at a frequency of 13.56Mhz. When a RFID tag is placed in the antenna
field, the data on the RIFD tag is read by the XR-2 driver. This data (UID, Tagnr and Labels) is communicated to the Xperiene
controller as either a "tag detected" or "tag removed" event. For a detailed overview of all available antennas and their
specifications, please see section 4.2, page 7.
