Inepro IP Card Reader Multitag KoMi Function The purpose of the IP reader is to read the unique ID contained in the card that is presented to the reader and transfer this ID to a server. In most cases this data will be the card serial number. To facilitate this a variety of card reader software module have been developed.

Components Components The IP Reader consists of the following components: · Grey Card Reader Housing - Grey Antenna Box - Antenna Box Cap 1 / Grey - Antenna Box Cap 2 / Grey · Controller Box · Wire Duct - Grey ·...

Some parts are already pre-assembled or have already be mounted. Like the Antenna board that is mounted in the pre- assembled Grey Card Reader housing (the grey antenna box). Inepro IP Reader (Konica Minolta)

The IP controller board will then transfer this information to the server by means of an Ethernet connection. The server will receive the card’s data and returns an (error) code to the IP controller board. Inepro IP Reader (Konica Minolta)

Alternative server It is possible to set up a second server for the IP reader. This allows the IP reader to look for an alternative server if the main server does not respond.

Network Connections Network Connections Switch On the IP controller board there are two network connectors. The IP controller board can be used as a switch because of the Ethernet switch chip on board and can be placed between a wall outlet and an existing Ethernet device (like a printer or multifunctional device).

LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) Antenna Housing LED Inside the card reader’s housing a LED is mounted which can be used to let the user know that card data has been read and this data is presented to the server. The LED will also be used to show an error has occurred, by using different blink patterns.

The IP controller board will receive this data string and, after encryption, redirect this data to the server. This situation can cause the CARD LED and the RS232 LED to behave differently. Inepro IP Reader (Konica Minolta)
