Engineering CoLab -- EverTag

Human expertise, AI velocity.

Welcome to the Engineering CoLab instance for the CargoBeacon EverTag platform. This site is the single source of truth -- covering hardware architecture, firmware specifications, certification requirements, and product manuals. Content is organised by engineering discipline and protected by role-based access control so that each team member (human or AI) sees the sections relevant to their work.

Product Families

  • EverTag Station (nRF54)

Firmware Compatibility

A single firmware build can run across multiple PCB articles within the same MCU family. The firmware detects the board variant at runtime via a resistor divider on an ADC pin.

Firmware Build MCU Boards Application
Tag/Anchor (nRF54) PAN611 / nRF54L15 230220, 232200, 232201 Wirepas tag/anchor, NFC config
Gateway (nRF54) PAN611 / nRF54L15 232202, 232203, 232204 Wirepas gateway + ESP32 WiFi
Tag/Anchor (nRF52) nRF52 230200, 230202, 230204, 230206 Wirepas tag (legacy)
