The location solution offers the WherePort III tag exciter, which indicates the distance to a known area or critical entrance by triggering the WhereTag tag to transmit an alternating "blink" pattern. The WherePort III tag exciter emits a nearly spherical magnetic field; the range is approximately 1m (3 feet) to 7.5m (25 feet), adjustable in appropriate directions. If the entrance is extremely large (such as a large loading door) or there are areas where signal obstruction may occur, multiple WherePorts can be interconnected to increase coverage. In addition, if a tag may pass through one of multiple aisles, the WherePort III can be used to mark adjacent aisles or between lines.
