Connecting to the Reader
Service Information
To connect via host name:
1. Open a browser. Reco mmended browse rs are IE6, IE7, IE8 , or
Mozilla 3.
2. Enter the host name, provided on a label on the reader, in the
browser (e.g., http://fx7400cd3b0d) and press Enter.
The User Login window appears and the reader is ready.
NOTE Connect the reader to a network that supports host
name registration and lookup to ensure the network can
access the reader using the host name. For instance,
some networks can register hostnames through DHCP.
When first connecting to the reader, it is recommended
to keep DHCP enabled in both the PC and in the
reader, although it is not guaranteed that host name will
work all the time.
As an alternative to using the host name on the reader
label, construct it using the reader MAC address on the
bottom of the reader. To do this, enter the prefix
FX7400, followed by the last six characters of the MAC
address. For example, for a MAC address of
0023683BA63A, use the prefix FX7400, followed by
3BA63A. Enter http://FX74003BA63A in the browser
address bar to access the reader.
If you have a problem using the equipment, contact your facility’s
Technical or Systems Support. If there is a problem with the
