Hardware installation is the process of selecting a communications port for your Link-IT
System. By default the selected COM port is 1. Comm port addresses 1 through to 16 are
valid. You should select the COM port into which the Link-IT reader has been inserted. The
Hardware Installation screen also provides a test of the selected comm port. The test function
not only tests the communications to the COM port, it also registers all tags currently being
seen by the Link-IT reader. All tags registered in this way are also available for selection as
user tags by the system. During the testing of the COM port the following window will be
displayed: This window is displayed for 10 seconds while the reader searches the
environment for tags.
