M190 IR Enabled Asset Tag
The M190 introduces two essential upgrades: a user-
replaceable battery engineered to support asset tracking
lifecycles of five years and beyond, and an onboard temperature
sensor that delivers real-time, asset-level thermal intelligence
alongside location data.
Low power consumption for
long battery life
User-replaceable battery

Designed for use with the
A740 rack locator and A750
room locato
The M190 is equipped with on-board infrared (IR)
and temperature sensors, and is designed to be
deployed in concert with RF Code’s A740 Rack
Locators and A750 Room Locators. IR-enabled
tags monitor their environment for incoming IR
signals and periodically report their unique ID, IR
location code, and current temperature reading.
Tagged assets can be rapidly located with rack-
level or room-level precision, while simultaneous
temperature data eliminates the gap between
where an asset is and how it is performing
thermally
The M190 enclosure is injection-molded using an
IR-transparent material that synchronizes the tag
with the nearest IR transmitter. Location is
determined via the IR code, requiring no signal
strength calculations or triangulation algorithms.
The integrated temperature sensor reports
ambient conditions at the asset level, providing
data that complements rack-level and row-level
environmental monitoring systems with granular,
per-asset visibility
Designed for rack-mounted assets, the M190
battery-powered 433 MHz RF transmitter features
a user-replaceable battery and replaceable
installation tabs for quick, non-disruptive
servicing. The replaceable battery design allows
operations teams to extend the life of each
deployed tag without removing it from the asset,
a critical advantage for equipment with lifecycles
exceeding five years. Interchangeable tabs
support flag, loop, or thumb-screw installation
on any standard U-mounted rack asset.
Powered by a standard coin cell battery, the
M190 performs reliably across a wide
temperature range (-20°C to +70°C) and
resists humidity and thermal cycling. The
M190 operates with a very low duty cycle,
and with the user-replaceable battery,
delivers an eectively unlimited tracking
lifecycle with simple field maintenance.
Every tag broadcasts its unique ID, IR
location, and temperature using RF Code’s
patented communication protocol,
supporting very high tag densities with
accurate, real-time data.
