Installation Instruction

Precautions

In order to ensure the normal and stable work of the equipment and the safety of your personal and property, please read the following precautions carefully before installing the RTEC R3800-F reading and writing equipment：

1. First check whether the ground terminal of the power socket is connected to the ground, and check whether the local power supply voltage meets the applicable voltage range of the reader；
2. Check that the device is tightly connected to the outside；
3. Pay attention to the type selection and length limitation of the network cable and serial cable：
   • The network cable adopts direct connection, the length does not exceed 80 meters
   • The Serial cable adopts direct connection, the length does not exceed 10 meters

When installing multiple readers, the antenna placement method and antenna spacing should be appropriate to avoid mutual interference.

Installation conditions

Interface description

Connection

This software provides two connection modes: serial port (RS232) and network port (RJ45)

**serial port (RS232)

**

The serial port connection only needs to configure the following parameters

1. Select in communication[RS232]

2. click【Connect] A small box will pop up as shown in the figure below

3. Select the correct serial port number, and then select the baud rate【Baud rate is 115200 by default】（If the parameter has been modified, you need to select the corresponding parameter, otherwise it cannot be connected）

4. click【Connect】，If the connection is successful, you will be prompted at the bottom left of the software interface：Connect succeed，The corresponding version number will be displayed at the bottom right of the interface，The current version number is： 0；1.10（The version number will be updated at any time）As shown in the figure below：

If the display version number is: 1.0.0, the connection fails

**Network port (RJ45)

**

The network port connection only needs to configure the following parameters

1. Select in communication【NET(UDP)】

2. click【Connect】A small box will pop up as shown in the figure below
   

3. 【Reader IP Add/Port】 Enter the IP address of the reader, the default is 168.0.188, and the port is 4001；

4. [local IP Add/Port】 Enter local IP address， 【 N ote: to connect to the network port, you need to change the local IP address to 192.168.0.xxx, the IP address of the same network segment as the device, XXX is between 1-255, and cannot be 188】
   
   If the display version number is: 1.0.0, the connection fails；

Tips

Connection failure, please check

1. Are the connections normal
2. Whether the power supply is normal and the voltage is stable (12V ~ 24V / 3A) 3、
3. Does demo open repeatedly
4. If you have opened demo before and are still occupying the process, you need to open the process first and close the demo
   If you still can’t connect successfully, you can contact the corresponding salesman or after-sales technology in time

Parameter setting

Reader Setup

Without reading tag data，click【Setup】，and click【Reader Setup】 As shown in the figure below

click 【GET】 to get the result. There is a corresponding prompt and the current function configuration of the device will be displayed

【ANT Inventory Time】：
Default value：0ms， Parameter Description: this time represents the dwell time of each antenna. When the time arrives, the next antenna will be switched to start inventory. 0 means that the time limit is not enabled. If it needs to be enabled, it is recommended to set it to at least 50ms and increase it by 10ms）

[Antenna Inventory Times】：Default value：1

Parameter Description: this parameter indicates the inventory times of each antenna.

After one inventory, the next inventory will be switched. After all times of inventory, the next antenna inventory will be switched. By default, it must be at least once. Usually, it is enough to set only once. This parameter and 【ANT Inventory Time】are double values, which will take effect at the same time, At the same time, switch to the next antenna according to the effective parameters）

[Repeat Times】：Default value：0，
(Parameter Description: all antennas will automatically enter the next cycle after polling for one cycle. The default value of 0 is invalid, which means infinite cycles）

【Antenna Interval time】：Default value：0ms,

（Parameter Description: after the inventory of each antenna is finished, the next antenna is switched to start inventory. This parameter indicates whether to wait for time before switching to the second antenna after the inventory of one antenna is finished. The default value of 0 means no waiting. If this parameter is enabled, it is recommended to set it to at least 10ms increment）

【Repeat Interval time】：Default value：0ms,

（Parameter Description: after the end of each cycle, it will enter the next cycle. This parameter indicates whether to wait for time to enter the next cycle after the end of one cycle. The default value is 0, which means no need to wait. If this parameter is enabled, it is recommended to set it to at least 10ms increment）
