RFID System S21 Configuration Principles
1-4 Introduction
• Software reset.
For the hardware reset, switch off the Reader’s power supply for a least 5 seconds. For the software
reset, press the RESET button on the Motherboard MBD21 twice, or type the command:
:RESET<Enter>
The software reset resets the Micro controller. The hardware reset resets the Micro controller and
runs a complete memory test for receiver REC21.
Exciter Address When an Exciter EX21 is part of a network, it must have an unique address. You can set the
Exciter’s address in a binary format between 0001 and 1110, using the S1 switch on the LFA21
board.
Once an address is assigned, the Exciter will only process commands with a matching address field.
In this way, you can direct commands in the network to a specific Exciter EX21.
Compatibility with
RFID System 95
RFID system S21 can be configured as an RFID System S95. By changing the configuration, the
S21 system can completely simulate the functionality of a S95 system. To implement this the
following must be done:
•On the Exciter EX21[board LFA21] - set jumper P1 on the S95 Position.
•On the Reader RD21 [board CTL21] - set jumper P3 on the S95 position.
•Upgrade Reader RD21 software to version 6.10.06 or higher.
