Reader Maintenance - Changing Communication Settings
The AR400 provides typical configuration settings that make the reader a plug-and-play device. The
Administrator Console allows customizing these communication parameters. For example, it enables
changing the default IP address of the reader when the network does not have a DHCP server.
To change the reader’s communication settings:
1. Open a Web browser.
2. In the address bar enter the reader’s URL (http:// followed by the reader’s IP address) and press
Enter.
3. Log in using the administrator username and password to access the reader’s Administrator
Console.
4. Click Maintenance.
5. Click Communication.
