RIM Configuration
The default RIM configuration is for an MS-Series Reader using two line LED control (multi-color).
Perform the following steps to configure the RIM for the NXT-6RK Keypad Reader. Refer to the
Wiring and Configuration Drawing on page 4 for switch and LED locations, and Table 2 on page 6
for switch and LED definitions.
4.1
Enter Configuration Mode
1. Hold down both SW1 and SW2 for about two seconds.
2. All seven LEDs on the RIM will flash three times.
3. Release both SW1 and SW2, and the RIM is now in configuration mode.
4.2
Configure the RIM
The RIM is configured for the NXT-6KR when the Reader Type LED (D6) is set and the Reader LED
Configuration LED (D2) is set.
1. First the RIM allows you to configure the Reader Type.
2. Press SW1 to step through the supported reader types. Each press of SW1 will step to the next
reader type.
3. When the D6 LED is lit, press SW2. The reader type is now set.
4. Now the RIM is ready to configure the Reader LED Configuration.
5. LED D2 should be lit indicating the RIM is set in it’s default mode. This is the correct mode for
the NXT-6RK Keypad Reader. If D2 is not lit, press SW1 to step through the supported LED line
configuration types. Each press of SW1 will step to the next LED configuration type.
6. When the D2 LED is lit, press SW2. The LED line control mode is now set.
7. The RIM is now configured and it reboots to accept the new parameters. The RIM’s LEDs will be
off for about 10 seconds as the unit resets itself. All seven LEDs will flash as the unit is rebooting
with the new configuration parameters. When the LEDs stop flashing, the unit is operational.
NOTE: Do not remove power from the RIM during the reboot process. Loss of power during
rebooting will invalidate any configuration changes you have made.
