IF30 Front Panel Port Descriptions
Port Description
AC Power Used with an appropriate power cable, this port connects the
reader to an AC power source.
Ethernet 10BaseT/100BaseTx port. Used with an appropriate cable,
this port connects the reader to your Ethernet network. The
reader auto-negotiates with the device it is communicating
with so that the data rate is set at the highest rate at which
both devices can communicate.
Serial Used with an RS-232 null modem cable (P/N 059167), this
port connects the reader to a terminal or PC to perform
configuration.
Control General purpose input/output (GPIO) port. This port
connects the reader to industrial controls such as relays or
indicators. The port includes optically-isolated inputs,
optically-isolated low voltage DC outputs, and access to 12
VDC.

“About the GPIO Interfaces” on page 72.
