FX Series RFID Readers Features
Configuration and Upgrading
Use the Administrator Console to reconfigure the reader. See Chapter 4, Administrator Console. The reader can
also accept new firmware and configuration updates.
Tag Management
The Administrator Console provides the Read tags feature. See Read Tags on page 4-19. Use client applications
based on Showcase II, Motorola EMDK (Enterprise Mobility Development Kit), or LLRP (EPCGlobal Low Level
Reader Protocol) for additional tag management operations such as
Write, Lock, Filtering, Event Management and
Kill.
Device Management
Quick Backup and Recovery
Use a web browser to back up and restore reader configuration by downloading the configuration XML file. Use the
Administrator Console to download the file to the reader.
SNMP Integration
The reader can send real time notification of specific events and failures to the SNMP server.
Security
User Level Security
Use this feature to assign different access levels to users, allowing them to perform necessary tasks without
compromising security. The reader recognizes three user access levels:
• View - view reader configuration settings.
• Admin - view and edit configuration settings and perform administrative tasks such as updating reader
firmware.
Logging
The reader keeps a log of all system-related activities for security and troubleshooting. The log includes
time-stamped system activities such as login attempts and hardware failures. Use the log to pinpoint problems, to
facilitate quick resolution, and to identify administrators who may require additional training to prevent future
problems. See System Log on page 4-33.
