HOW SCAN~LINK'S ARMOUR SYSTEM WORKS
-
1. Simple Setup & Maintenance-Free
SCAN~LINK keeps it simple. Groundworkers are tagged with passive RFID tags in their vests or hard hats, while equipment is outfitted with SCAN~LINK hardware. Installation is fast, hassle-free. Our RFID tags are passive and requires no batteries, no maintenance, and are long lasting.
-
2. Real-Time Hazard Detection
The 3.0 Armour System allows for customizable detection zones, including full 360º coverage.
When a tagged worker enters the zone, operators receive clear audio and visual alerts, while external alarms warn the worker. The 3.0 system’s improved range and reliability ensure consistent detection, even in challenging environments.
-
3. Actionable Safety Data & Analytics
Transforms detection events into actionable reports, with an optional integrated telematics interface. Each SCAN~LINK tag features a unique ID that can be assigned to an employee or asset, enabling user-friendly data analytics and driving informed, actionable decisions.
Featured Reports Include:
- Heatmap
- Detection Map
- Detections by Employee
- Detections by Equipment
Customizable with manual and automated report options.
NEW 3.0 ARMOUR SYSTEM COMPONENTS
New 3.0 Antenna Models
The 3.0 Armour System offers three antenna models engineered for maximum flexibility. From compact installations to extended range and fully customizable coverage, each option is built for durability and reliable performance in low-visibility conditions including dust, fog, rain, and harsh industrial environments.
3.0 Antenna Unit
STANDARD RANGE
The new Standard Range Antenna features a redesigned, compact form factor while delivering improved passive RFID detection performance. It is ideal for most equipment applications.
3.0 Antenna Unit
LONG RANGE
The Long Range Antenna combines the proven enclosure design of the 2.0 system with upgraded 3.0 internal technology to deliver extended detection capabilities of 40+ feet for larger equipment and expanded safety zones.
3.0 Antenna Unit
COMPACT ANTENNA
The Compact Antenna is a smaller-format antenna designed for full coverage detection and customizable multi-antenna layouts, ideal for tight-clearance environments.
New 3.0 Display Unit
The 3.0 Armour System’s Display Unit delivers audible and visual alerts with a fully redesigned interface. Its intuitive circular LED layout supports full coverage directional detection, lighting up to show in which zone a tagged worker is detected.

3.0 Antenna Dimensions
DISPLAY UNIT
The new SCAN~LINK 3.0 Display Unit was completely redesigned from the ground up and improves upon the previous 2.0 In-Cab Display Unit.
Redesigned LED Display
- Supports full coverage for worker detection and protection
- Intuitive circular LED design allows the operator to know where the detection takes place
Example of a Quad Node (Full Coverage) Setup
Operator Mute Function
The Operator Mute Function serves as a solution to eliminate self-detection events of the equipment operator:
- Eliminates nuisance self-detection alerts inside the cab
- Maintains full detection of surrounding workers
- Auto resets on power cycle
- System will only mute one worker's apparel at a time
