10 m UHF RFID Reader, 9 dBi, Wiegand & RS485, IP66: overview
The LR-130 is a compact integrated UHF RFID reader for vehicle and pedestrian gates where tags should be read between 2 and 10 m from the panel. A 9 dBi antenna, the reader electronics and a status LED sit behind a 309 × 309 mm IP66 front, and tag IDs go to your access or parking controller over Wiegand or RS485.
Two working modes cover most lane designs: continuous reading, or triggered reading that starts on an external signal such as a vehicle loop detector. The LED can be set to red, green, blue, yellow, cyan, purple or white, which helps drivers and guards see the reader state at a glance.
The standard versions use USB for configuration. The -NET-BT versions add a TCP/IP port for sending tag data over the LAN and BLE 5.1 for adjusting settings at roughly 0–3 m. Both come as an EU 865–868 MHz version and a US version for the 902–928 MHz band, which ships set to 902–906 MHz and can be changed in the configuration tool.
Integration notes
Run the reader from 9–15 V DC. At 12 V the datasheet gives up to 500 mA on standby and up to 1200 mA while reading, so size the supply for the higher figure. The housing is designed for pole-clamp mounting. RF output spans 19–30 dBm, which lets you pull the read zone in where two lanes sit close together. The front carries a printed vehicle icon; ask us if you need a plain front.

Where the LR-130 is used
- Residential car-park entry reading windshield tags a few meters before the barrier
- Staff parking gate sending Wiegand IDs to an existing access controller
- Loading-bay gate where a loop detector triggers reading only when a truck arrives
- Networked multi-site parking where the -NET-BT version reports reads over TCP/IP
Apartment, Multifamily & Rental Property Access Control
Apartment building access control hardware: anti-clone readers with matched fob sets, QR visitor codes, 4G controllers for rentals and UHF tags for gates.
LR-130 FAQ
What is the difference between the LR-130 and the LR-140?
They share interfaces, power requirements and options. The LR-130 uses a 309 mm panel with a 9 dBi antenna for 2–10 m; the LR-140 uses a 445 mm panel with a 12 dBi antenna for 10–20 m.
Can the reader wait for a vehicle before reading?
Yes. Set it to triggered mode and connect the trigger to a ground-loop detector. In continuous mode it reads whenever a tag enters the field.
Can Bluetooth be used to open the gate?
No. On this reader Bluetooth is used for configuration only. For Bluetooth door release and on-board user storage, see the LR-150 standalone controller.
Which frequencies does the US version use?
It covers the 902–928 MHz band and ships set to 902–906 MHz. The setting can be changed in the configuration tool to suit local rules or other readers on site.
