Reader

A reader is the physical device that reads the RFID labels and runs the Harmony Reader Agent.

Read-point

A read-point is where all the configuration of a reader resides. Each read-point is linked with one reader. Each read-point has a unique ID that is used in PI calls and real-time streams.

Workspace

A workspace is an environment where all readers, read-points and data reside for one customer or one project. Data is separated per workspace, and you can create as many workspaces as you like. Each workspace has a unique ID that is used in API calls and real-time streams.

Action

An action is a filtered RFID event, or another event that might be of interest. Nedap Harmony has the following actions:
