configuration via the web page.
Baud Rate: The baud rate that the ENI will use to communicate on the serial port. This setting
must match the baud rate of the programming host. Required: 9600
ENI Port: The TCP port number that must be used to open a network connection to the ENI.
This should be an unused port on your network. Consult your system administrator for more
information. Recommended: 3001 - must match setting in software
WWW Port: The HTTP port that the web server will use to display the configuration pages. The
default value is 80 which is used by default by most web browsers. If it is necessary to set
another port, it will be necessary to specify the port when accessing the configuration page. For
example, if port 8080 were used, it would be necessary to specify this port in addition to the IP
address such as entering in the browser address bar: http://192.168.10.177:8080.
Connection: Select either a TCP or UDP connection. TCP communication is used for AAN-4 to
host communication. Required: TCP
Connection Parameters
(The following settings should not be used with the AAN-1/2)
Host IP Address/Port: When auto-connect is enabled, this is the first host address of another
ENI device which a connection will be established with. Set all values to '0' to disable this
feature. Required: Not enabled
Auto Connect: If checked will cause the ENI to automatically connect to the Host Address
given. This address should be another ENI that is not set to auto connect. Required: Not
enabled.
Gateway Address and Subnet Mask: These are used to connect to another ENI that is not on
the same network when the Auto Connect box is checked. Set all values to '0' to disable this
feature. Required: Not enabled.
UDP HOST LIST
From the main screen clicking the “UDP Host List Button” will display the Host List configuration. This feature
is not used by the ENI-100 when used with the AAN-4.
After changing any of the above configuration options, click the “program” button at the bottom of the page.
The ENI will then save the settings and will be reset. Clicking the “Reset” button at the bottom of the page
will reset the values to their current configuration. If you do not wish to change any configuration options,
simply close the browser window without pressing either button.
3.4 Card Reader Wiring
Up to four card readers can be connected to the AAN-4. Card readers with standard Wiegand output are
supported, including magnetic stripe, proximity, bar code, smart card, biometric, keypad, etc. It is not
necessary for the readers to be identical on each connection port, i.e. up to four different reader types can be
used simultaneously.
Each reader connection consists of connection terminals for VDC Output and Ground, Data 1 Signal, Data 0
Signal, Beeper control, and multiple LED control (red, green, and yellow). The wiring to the reader should be
made using 24 AWG shielded cable with 4 twisted pairs (Belden 9504 or equivalent). Do not exceed 500 feet
(152 m) between the AAN-4 and reader. Connect the shield drain wire of the cable at the GND terminal of
the appropriate reader connector on the AAN-4. Carefully insulate the drain wire with sleeving for a reliable
installation.
