Connecting the Network Cables
Before you connect the Savi Fixed Readers network cables, check any
relevant configuration or wiring diagrams.
Note:
While the Savi Fixed Reader SR-650-101 is rated for use in severe
environments, the power and network connector seals may deteriorate
with repeated installation and removal. Savi recommends the use of heat
shrink tubing (Savi part number 680-02423-001) for units subject to
outdoor use.
Ethernet Connection
You can connect the Savi Fixed Reader SR-650-101 directly to a network
hub via the built-in Ethernet connection. The Readers are the source of
RFID tag read and service events. SmartChain Site Manager records, stores,
and forwards these events to Savi SmartChain application software.
SmartChain Site Manager also sends commands for reader management or
control logic. The readers communicate with SmartChain Site Manager
using Universal Data Appliance Protocol (UDAP).
