Note:
Data is buffered in the “Reader Response” window and can be
reviewed by use of the scroll bar. As the buffer fills up, the software
can become slow to respond. If the system seems to lag, try clearing
this buffer by clicking the “Clear” button.
The “LED” and “Audio” buttons toggle the LED and Audio beeper response on
and off, respectively.
The LEDs and audio transducer can also be individually activated through the host
software using the “Activate” command from the file menu. LED color can be
specified, along with activation duration in milliseconds.
10. Multi-drop Addressing
Reader serial number addressing allows multiple Readers (up to 100) to be operated
in parallel on a single RS-485 bus. With multiple readers attached to the RS-485
bus, each reader can be individually addressed using the “Address Reader”
command in the “Configuration” menu. In the window that appears (shown below),
checking the “Address Reader by Serial Number” box, and entering the serial
number for a specific reader on the bus causes all issued commands to be directed to
that reader alone.
Reader Address Window
Note:
With multiple readers attached to the RS-485 bus, commands should
not be issued unless a specific reader is addressed, as the readers do
not currently support the use of “broadcast” commands.
To turn off reader addressing, uncheck the “address Reader by Serial Number” box.
