Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring Speedway Revolution This chapter provides a high-level view of the configuration and monitoring options available for Speedway Revolution. Configuring Speedway Revolution You can think of Speedway Revolution configuration in two categories: configuring the device itself and configuring the Reader‘s RF behavior.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring Setting Hostname > config network hostname Setting Static IP Address > config network ip static Note: The IP address is required; the other parameters are optional. The default value is used if an optional parameter is omitted from the ip command.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring This section covers connecting to and configuring a Reader‘s RF parameters using MultiReader. It also provides a high-level description of each parameter. To configure and test a Reader from within MultiReader: 1. Install and launch the MultiReader application. The following screen displays: Figure 3.1 MultiReader initial screen 2. Select Configure Settings.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring You can determine the name and the IP address via the RShell show network summary command. Note: The show network summary command provides the dynamic values returned by DHCP or LLA if the current configuration is dynamic. The local hostname resolution feature (mDNS) gives the reader a local hostname in addition to an IP address as its network identity.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring Figure 3.3 MultiReader Reader Settings Settings Screen 8. In Reader Mode, select AutoSet Dense Reader. The Reader Mode specifies the rules to use for communication between the Reader and tag. With AutoSet Dense enabled, the Reader automatically senses the environment and adjusts the mode accordingly. 9. In Search Mode, select Dual Target. In Session, select Session 1.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring process back and forth from A to B and back to A. Session 1 ensures a persistence period that prevents tags from reverting before they have all been read. 10. The Reader Antenna Port allows you to specify which physical ANT port (2 ports on a R220, or 4 ports on a R420/R640) on the Speedway Revolution you are modifying. When the Antenna Hub feature is disabled, each ANT port represents one antenna.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 3: Configuring and Monitoring Figure 3.5 MultiReader Tag Inventory Display In this case, the Reader detected five tags. Because the search mode is Dual Target, the Reader continuously reads the tags, first reading the A flags, and then reading the B flags. Notice in the image above that one of the tag entries is a pinkish color. The tag entry changes to red when a tag is not actively read.

Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 5: Troubleshooting Chapter 5: Troubleshooting If you experience a problem with Speedway Revolution, this brief chapter presents a few suggestions to correct the issue. Returning to the Default Configuration If you are experiencing a problem with the Reader and are having difficulty pinpointing the cause, it is useful to return the Reader to a known state. We recommend resetting to the default configuration.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 5: Troubleshooting Warning: Pressing the Default Restore button for 10 seconds or more will cause a factory default restore to occur. The factory default restore removes the Reader‘s custom application partition (CAP) if one exists. The Reader returns to the original, factory shipped state. It is important to avoid accidentally removing the CAP. There may be situations where CAP removal is necessary.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 5: Troubleshooting Submitting Diagnostic Data for Analysis by Impinj Technical Support If Speedway Revolution is exhibiting RF behavior differing from what you expect and you are unable to determine the cause, you may want to submit relevant data for analysis by Impinj Technical Support. Using the Impinj MultiReader application, you can easily capture data relating to the problem scenario.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide Octane 4.11 Chapter 5: Troubleshooting MultiReader connects to the Reader and begins ―listening‖ for any RF activity. The Reader captures data surrounding any RF activity it detects. 8. Perform the RF activity to submit for analysis. 9. Select File in the upper left corner of the application. This completes the capture activity. 10. Select Save Debug Data.... A browse window opens. 11. Enter a file name and save the file in the desired location. 12.
