5. Configuration utility
If the encoder parameters need to be modified to suit the network where the
encoder is located, this can be done in RFID Encoder Configuration Utility.
Table 2 below describes the configurable parameters.
For guidance about how to configure the RFID encoder for use together with
Visionline, see section 5.1. For information about how to configure the RFID
encoder for use together with VingCard Vision, see section 5.2. For default
parameter values, see section 6.1.
Note: For Visionline, the parameters can also be changed via a web interface;
see chapter 7.
Dynamic IP address
(DHCP)
Note: This parameter
is only applicable for
Visionline.
If this checkbox is marked, the RFID encoder retrieves
an IP address via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) and then automatically finds the server.
Host IP address
The IP address of the encoder
Subnet Mask
A mask used to determine what subnet an IP address
belongs to
Announcement
broadcast
If there is no DNS (Domain Name System), the RFID
encoder will still find the server if this checkbox is
marked
Emulate KDE
Emulate a KDE encoder
Note for Visionline: With the 'emulate KDE' alternative
marked, the web interface described in chapter 7 will not
be available.
Wall mounted
This parameter changes the text orientation on the
encoder display. Mark Enable if the encoder should
be mounted on the wall.
Zero config
Note: This parameter
is only applicable
for Visionline.
If no DHCP server is available, the encoder will at startup
show 'offline' and the encoder IP address. Shortly after,
the IP address will change to an address in the range
169.254.1.0 – 169.254.254.255; this range is based
on the zero config standard. Note: It is recommended
to always have this checkbox marked.
EPHY auto negotiate
If the link speed (10 or 100 Mbit/s) has been unaltered
for a certain time, a detector changes to manual speed
and alternatively tests 10MBit/s and 100MBit/s until
an answer is given. When this detector is activated, the
parameter EPHY (Ethernet PHYsical transceiver) auto
negotiate will be set to 'No' and the checkbox will
be unmarked.
