The reader “R-IN 1300 MID” can be connected to the LAN just like a PC (Ethernet cable & RJ-45
connectors). No software installation required.
A direct Ethernet connection between a PC and “R-IN 1300 MID” reader is also possible, with an
Ethernet Cross Cable
(supplied together with the reader). Refer to Appendix A for more details on
how to do this.
In both cases the reader “R-IN 1300 MID” must be provided with a correct IP-Address
(DHCP is not
available. Thus the reader is not yet able to get its IP-address automatically).
To provide the “R-IN 1300 MID” reader with an IP-address, it is recommended to configure it with the
supplied cross cable (or RS-232 interface), at least for the first time, in order to avoid IP conflicts in
your network. See appendix A for more details on how to connect your reader with a cross cable.
When the reader has its own IP-Address on the LAN (or with cross cable), you can go to login-page of
the reader and have access to the configuration-, monitoring- and administrator- tools. To do this,
open a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) and type http://192.168.0.85 (or the IP that you
have configured) in the address bar.
