16.1 Communication
Fig. 48: Communication Tab
The communication tab groups together all the functions for establishing connections and conguring the Linux
module. The various communication connections are grouped in 3 sections:
●
COM for serial connections via the COM port (RS232/485/422); only available in the M-ARU-ETH-E6 reader (order
number 52010198);
●
USB for connections up to version USB 2.0; only available in the ERU-ETG-E4 (order number 52010190) and
ERU-ETG-U4 reader (order number 52010191);
●
Ethernet for connections via TCP/IP;
●
Communication Conguration Linux Module section to change the Ethernet setting; see Communication Congura-
tion Linux Module, p.85
When the connection has been established, the program retrieves the information about the installed Linux module. It
is possible to view and change the conguration information via the Communication Conguration Linux Module .
16.1.1 Ethernet Section
The Ethernet connection is established by linking the reader into an existing network or by directly connecting the
reader and the control computer. To directly connect the reader to the PC, a cross-link cable is required, unless the LAN
interface on the PC supports auto-mdi-x . Alternatively, it is possible to use two standard patch cables and a switch.
