Flexible Solutions for Various Disconnected States
Not every network is created equal. When reliable ERP connectivity isn’t available for real-time data collection, RFgen can bridge gaps in connectivity to enable continuous scanning and material movements—no matter how remote. RFgen offline mobility solutions provide highly flexible options to solve connectivity challenges and keep your information in sync in a way that best suits your business needs:
Batch Mode: For Occasional Disconnections
Batch Mode enables mobile devices to pick up the slack when connectivity is interrupted. RFgen software installed on the device stores collected data locally, then uploaded when connectivity is restored. “Batch” is ideal for environments with temporary or occasional disconnections outside Wi-Fi or cellular range, such as in walk-in freezers or during route deliveries.
Continuous Availability: When Entirely Disconnected
Continuous Availability is a robust server-side solution that enables workers to continue scanning and collecting data while entirely disconnected from the ERP or host system—even for hours at a time, such as during ERP maintenance windows. Data is stored locally on devices and replicated on an RFgen server to ensure work continuity until connectivity is restored.
