Selection Definition
IP Address
An IP address specifies a unique host ID for the reader on a
particular TCP/IP network. Consult your network administrator
for a valid IP address for the reader.
Net Mask
A netmask modifies a standard IP address into subnets. A
default class C net mask should be valid in most cases (either
255.255.255.0 or 255.255.240.0).Consult your network
administrator for the net mask value.
Gateway IP
Address
A gateway allows the reader to reach other systems not on the
local network and remote systems to reach the reader. If the
reader requires external connectivity, consult your network
administrator for a valid gateway address.
Net Host Port n
Select a connection types from the drop-down list:
• TCP/IP Server: As a TCP/IP server, a Port # must be
specified. In this case it is the TCP/IP client’s
responsibility to initiate an reader connection.
• TCP/IP Client: As a TCP/IP client, aside from the Port #,
the Remote IP Address of the TCP/IP server which is to
receive the bar code messages must be specified. The
Reconnect Time specifies the interval (in seconds) at
which the reader attempts to establish a connection.
• UDP Messaging: In some instances, it may be desirable
to use a connectionless UDP message to send bar code
data. In this case, only the Port # and Remote IP Address
of the receiver need to be specified.
