Reading Tags with the Speedway Revolution Reader
1) Connect reader to a DHCP-enabled network
a) Connect the reader directly to your Ethernet network using a standard
Ethernet cable (a crossover cable is not necessary).
b) Connect the RJ-45 connector on the reader to a LAN drop or network switch. A typical set-up is as follows:
c) This product is intended to be supplied with a Listed/Certified power supply, marked LPS or Class 2, with 24Vdc output, rated minimum 2.5A. When supplied from an IEEE 802.3af (Power over Ethernet) compliant power source which is certified by the appropriate agencies, the RF transmit power is limited to +30dBm. (Ce produit est conçu pour être alimenté avec une alimentation Mis / certifiés, marqué LPS ou de classe 2, avec sortie 24V, 2,5 A nominal minimum. Lorsqu’il est fourni à partir d’une norme IEEE 802.3af (Power over Ethernet) de la source d’alimentation conforme qui est certifié par le organismes appropriés, la puissance d’émission RF est limitée à 30 dBm.)
d) Ensure your PC has Bonjour Print Services enabled (install if necessary)
e) If desired, test your reader connection by pinging hostname.local. The
hostname follows the format SpeedwayR-XX-XX-XX where XX-XX-XX is the last three couplets of the reader’s MAC address (printed on reader label). (e.g., ping speedwayr-10-28-42.local)
NOTE: If your network does not support DHCP, use a Cisco-style console cable (RJ-45 to DB9) for a direct RS-232 serial connection to the reader. The reader’s RShell command line interface can configure a static IP address for the reader (p.16, Installation and Operations Manual). Once completed, you can connect the reader over Ethernet.
2) Set reader region and check firmware version
a) Connect to reader WebUI using a web browser
http://<reader name or IP address>.
b) Log in to the reader. Default credentials are:
user name: root password: impinj
c) Select your region from the drop down list. You, the user, are responsible
to ensure operation with the correct RF settings and are solely responsible for any fines and other damages due to incorrect or non-compliant country/ region settings on your reader. NOTE: GX1 and GX2 readers have no region pre-configured and will not transmit RFID signals until region is selected.
d) Click the REBOOT button. When changing the reader’s operating region, the effect of the change does not take effect until the next reboot.
e) Note the “Software Version” shown on the WebUI. Ask your authorized Impinj partner or reseller for the latest released version and upgrade if necessary using the “Reader Upgrade” utility in the WebUI. The reader firmware for Speedway Revolution is named Octane.
3) Read tags with Multireader software utility
a) Attach antenna RF cable to antenna port 1 on the reader.
b) Install (if necessary) and open the MultiReader application.
c) Click “Configure Settings” and add information to connect to your reader.
d) Place tags in the antenna’s field of view. Click the Start Inventory button and
watch tag information as it is read and displayed in MultiReader.
e) Some basic reader settings can be changed in Multireader, review Impinj documents to learn about each setting.
