IMPORTANT
IDRO900F antenna port may be susceptible to damage due to static electricity(ESD) or other high
voltages. Appropriate electrostatic precautions are required to avoid static incoming when handling or
connecting IDRO900F antennas or communication ports. A Breakdown may occur if the antenna or
communication port is exposed to the ESD.
4. 2. 1 Connecting and Configuring the Ethernet Port
The maximum length of an Ethernet cable is 30 meters. If you are communicating with the RFID Reader over
the LAN(Local Area Network), connect the Ethernet cable to RJ45 port on the reader from the hub or router.
By default, RFID Reader does not support DHCP server and is set to a fixed IP address of 192.168.9.6.
Fixed IP address of the reader can be changed by the user.
4. 2. 2 Connecting and Configuring the RS232 Port
The maximum length of RS232 cable is 3 meters. Connect to the host PC with a serial cable to the RS232 port
on the reader. We recommend using 9600 baud rate when using a 10-meter RS232 cable. Otherwise, there
may be data loss.
By default, Baud rate is set to 115200.
Baud rate of the reader can be changed by the user.
4. 2. 3 Connecting the Antennas
The maximum length of antenna cable is 10 meters. Connect the antenna using the RF Coaxial cable to the
antenna port ANT1 on the reader. If you are using an additional antenna, connect the antenna to the antenna
port ANT2-ANT4.
RF Coaxial cable is recommended to use LMR200 50 ohms, and the cable loss is 1dB/3m.
