5. Continue to link new readers as necessary (cables 3 and 4 in Figure 2-4).
The final reader in the chain must be terminated with a matched resistive
load (termination cable assembly) to prevent signal reflections in long
cable runs.
Note: The termination cable assembly (Savi part number
830-04598-001) is included with the reader. If the distance
between readers is greater than 100 feet (30.48 meters),
additional network cables are available (Savi part number
830-00169-100). A cable adapter (Savi part number
625-00921-001) is included to connect two cables.
Ethernet Connection
You can connect the Savi Fixed Reader SR-650-101 directly to a network
hub via the built-in Ethernet connection. The readers are the source of RFID
tag read and service events. SmartChain Site Manager records, stores, and
forwards these events to Savi SmartChain. SmartChain Site Manager also
sends commands for reader management or control logic. The readers
communicate with SmartChain Site Manager using UDAP.
SmartChain Site Manager and SmartChain are available separately from
Savi Technology.
