[labnetwork] RFID interlocks

[Aebersold,Julia W.]

Thomas there are many options available, but we use FOM. It has IP addressable relays that turn on and off 110 V power.  We use it for computer monitors, compressed air valves, etc.

Cheers!

Subject: [labnetwork] RFID interlocks

Colleagues,

To resolve the issue of untracked use of equipment at our Nanofab, I've been working with a Easyclocking in Florida with mixed results.

The goal was to have RFID badges to open and close interlocks on our equipment and provide a data table with which we could reconcile accounts.

Is anyone else using an RFID system to track equipment usage?

I  am trying to use existing services and hardware to get to a better tracking system (I don't have the resources to develop a system internally).

Please let me know?

Best Regards
