3.4.2 Connecting to a Reader

A Reader provides Ethernet and USB device interfaces to allow for client

connection. The USB interface uses TCP/IP networking over USB as the

protocol. This allows you to connect to a reader as if it was a normal

network. So all the usual services, such as telnet and FTP are available.

Step 1. Ensure a reader is turned on and a communication cable is plugged in.

ReaderManager will automatically detect all readers on the local network.

When a Reader is connected for the first time to a network using an

Ethernet cable or a host computer using a USB cable, the Reader is

identified by its Model Name-Serial Number (recommended to keep).
