6 Configuration of the device

The device when used for first time needs to be configured.
There are two methods to do so. The network configuration can be easily changed by
Inveo “Discoverer” (https://inveo.com.pl/software/) software:

6.1 Changing the device's IP address by Discoverer application.

When the “Discoverer” is opened and the relevant device is found, choose Interface list
box and click on Change IP button.

In a new opened dialog box, settings such
as IP address, MASK, GATEWAY, DNS1/DNS2
and the Host name can be changed.

Please save correct settings by choosing
Change button.

If Remote Config is disabled (enabled by default), it is necessary to configure
the device by changing the computer's subnet (chapter 6.2).

To enable the remote configuration it is necessary to enter tabs Administration
and check mark Enable Remote Network Config.

Save the setup by selecting Save Config button.

6.2 Changing the PC's subnet address, for the device configuration

After the device is connected to a network, a subnet address of a PC which is connected
to the same network has to be changed.
To do so, go to the PC's MS Windows network configuration: Start->Control panel

->Network and Sharing Center->Network and Internet->Network Connections, choose
the related controller and right click on „Properties”.
After selecting this option configuration window will show up:

Next choose "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)", double click on it and enter following settings:

After saving changes by clicking OK, open an Internet browser and enter in the browser's
address line: 192.168.111.15.
Default user name/password: admin/admin00

Changing network settings in MS WINDOWS

Illustrative TCP/IP protocol settings

Next select option „NETWORK”

To change the network settings of the reader, use the following fields:

Host Name – NETBIOS name,
DHCP – checking this box forces use of the address assigned by the DHCP server
IP Address – the IP address of the reader (at this address, the reader will be visible on

the network),

IP Mask – IP subnet mask,
Gateway – network gateway,

DNS1 – DNS servers addresses,
DNS2 – DNS servers addresses,

After making changes, select Save.

7 The device functions

7.1 The reader status

The reader status can be found at Home tab in the reader's menu (192.168.111.15).

Selected HOME tab shows following information:

Status Table:
Input 1 – input number 1 current status (binary input),
Input 2 – input number 2 current status (binary input),
Relay 1 – current status of relay output number 1,
Relay 2 – current status of relay output number 2,
Last read ID – last tag readout in HEX format,
ID known as – type of tag read (unknown/user),
Number of read IDs – number of read IDs since the reader's reset,
Active Groups – numbers of groups that are active at this moment,
Other info – this can inform about the reader-server protocol communication timeout

(message: Protocol Timeout!).

Attention:

If readout at a last read ID shows 8500c2b4a8 (LOCK!) it indicates blocking of further
tags reading until releaseId (HTTP GET) command is sent or in case of Modbus,
value “0” has to be sent to 1 Holding Reg address or 1004 Single Coil address.

7.2 The reader work modes

The device can be set up for various work modes. Enhanced settings allow the reader to
work as a standalone device (Autonomic mode) as well as it can be controlled by a
software.

Standalone – Autonomic mode

In this mode the reader isn't connected to network and compares tag readout with its
own internal memory, opens a lock's bolt by drawing a RFID card near to the reader, and
the like.

Controlled by software mode

The reader can be controlled by communications protocols. Time duration of the reader­server communication loss can be set (Timeout value). After expiration of set time, the
device will switch to the autonomic mode.
Remember, when connection with the server is re-established the reader will return to a
software mode control.

User manual RFID IND-LED/LCD Page 14 of 51

[B04]

Advanced work settings

ID Length – length of ID code for comparison with cards database
Read Delay – value of read delay for a consecutive tag multiplied by 0.1s

(150 = 15 seconds)

These settings relate to control by communications protocols only:
Continuous reading – "hotel mode" – when this mode is chosen, a card is seen at the
time when it is drawn near to the reader only. If the card is moved away from the
reader, ID code is overwritten by zeros.
Additionally, in I/O Settings tab, table Output Relay 1, the Pulse mode can be set. This
mode allows the reader to hold on to "on" status for set time length after a card is drawn
away. (for example: Time-on = 40 * 0.1s = 4 seconds).

Often this mode is used to maintain power supply for a machinery which is active only
when an authorized employee logs in using a card reader. Likewise, it is used in hotel
systems. Hotel rooms are often powered after a card is seen by a reader *special

purpose housing.

Prevent auto IO control – enforces software control of outputs, LED diodes and

display, when the reader is controlled by a communications protocol. This mode is useful
together with the reader-server communication loss time expiration setting, as the
reader will switch to autonomic mode after set up time expire. In turn, during control by
software, server/controller ought to maintain interaction with the reader. If server lost
connection and the device start standalone mode, the reader will respond as it is set in
"I/O Settings" tab.

7.3 Cards management

The reader supports card management through implemented communication protocols as
well as using external software.

7.3.1 Add or delete a card using a network browser

At the browser, in the reader's Cards tab, a user can assign TAGs that the reader will
recognize.

To add a new user card, on the Cards tab, click the Add User by reader button, and
then approximate the card to the reader. The assignment of the card will be signalized by
the appropriate beep.

If the user does not have a physical TAG, and there is a need to add a new user, press
the button Add User manual. The following window will be displayed:

In the window above, just give the user name, enter the ID of the card and assign to the
appropriate groups. The entered data confirm the Add Card button.

After correct assignment, in the List of cards table a new record will show up.
