  • Page 6: Mounting

    After the reader is turned on for some time the temperature might increase. If you install more than one “R-IN1300 MC” with antenna, be sure to set *mi1 (modulation index 30%). Do not plug/unplug any connectors while the reader is turned ON.

    The basic version of the reader, the so-called R-IN1300 MC SCM, can thus be upgraded to the more powerful version, the so called R-IN1300 MC. R-IN1300 MC SCM readers only use Antenna 1, Splitter and Rx and thus they can only be used in Single Channel Mode.

    DATAMARS 5.3.3 L OGIN The interface running on the browser permits access to users only via login (user name & password): attempts to join the configuration- and monitoring tools directly via bookmarks are prevented from the system. A user trying to connect while the system is already occupied (i.e. by another user having logged in before) gets access in read-only mode thus preventing the configuration from being modified at the same time by more users.
