General Considerations; Third Party Interface; Human Interface - Datamars R-IN1300 MID User Manual

To provide the "R-IN 1300 MID" reader with an IP-address, it is recommended to configure it with the
supplied cross cable (or RS-232 interface), at least for the first time, in order to avoid IP conflicts in
your network. See appendix A for more details on how to connect your reader with a cross cable.
When the reader has its own IP-Address on the LAN (or with cross cable), you can go to login-page of
the reader and have access to the configuration-, monitoring- and administrator- tools. To do this,
open a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) and type http://192.168.0.85 (or the IP that you
have configured) in the address bar.

The interface (graphical program running on PC or on the browser) shows the configuration of the
reader "R-IN 1300 MID" as a tabbed panel. Each panel groups logically tied parameters.
The SAVE, DEFAULT and CANCEL buttons act locally on the parameters of the current active tab.
The REFRESH button acts on the whole configuration (on all tabs).
To save the configured settings shown in the tab, press the SAVE button.
To restore the factory default settings of the current tab, press the DEFAULT button.
To undo changes done on the current tab, press the CANCEL button.
To view the actual parameters of the reader on all tabs, press the REFRESH button.
The parameters shown in the tabs may depend on each other. The selection of some options could
make some parameters "meaningless" in this context. In such cases relevant parameters are shown
normally while "meaningless" parameters are masked/disabled.
All parameters described in this manual refer to the "High Frequency Reader R-IN 1300 MID" with
exception of the parameters contained in the "Combo Setup Panel" and "Advanced Setup Panel"
which refer to the "Low Frequency Reader R-IN 7500".
The graphical application requires a Java2 or Java5 plug-in. If the requested plug-in is already
installed on your PC, you are immediately able to run the application.
Otherwise the system will try to connect to the WWW to download the plug-in. In this case, follow
every installation step always accepting the defaults suggested by the system.
