Configuring reader connections
The following steps provide information on configuring the reader connections to the LC via the LPM serial
ports.
Prerequisites: Accessing the Reader web interface, page 42.
1. Determine what baud rate is required by the lane controller (if using serial connections).
From the Dashboard page, in the Configure panel, click on Lane Control.
Result: The following screen appears.
On the LC Destinations panel, set the Advanced switch to the ON position. This will open up options for enabling
serial port connections on a per antenna (channel) basis.
In the Destination row, select the Serial check box for each RF channel that will communicate with the LC via an
LPM COM Port.
Example: The following screen shows an example of the assignments.
From the COM N dropdowns, select an LPM port for each RF channel to use to communicate with the LC.
Note 1: By default, RF Channel 1 communicates with the LC via LPM COM 1, RF Channel 2 communicates
with the LC via LPM COM 2 and so on, up to RF Channel 8. Do not enable both serial and Ethernet LC.
Note 2: More than one RF Channel can communicate via one LPM COM port, if necessary.
Click on the "expand" icon in the LC Serial panel to show serial options including baud rate.
