Installation Manual 

 

 

• 

Set time on the card with the command 

set mmddyyhhmm

(month, day, year, hour, minute). 

 

• 

Set IP addresses for the card and the host with the command 

niot”.

 You will now get some 

questions. They are all going to be answered by 

enter

 key, except from 2 questions (example 

addresses):  

Client IP address? Set: 

192.168.0.50

 

Host IP address?   Set: 

192.168.0.31”    

• 

Now you have to push 

enter

 key

 

until you get the 

“162-bug>”prompt. 

 

• 

After that is done the software have to be loaded down over the net with the command 

niop”. 

Here you have to answer one question; File name? Your answer should be path and filename for 
your (example):

/home/ecopoint/mr/tornado.st_bin”, 

then push enter until there are 

no questions left. It takes about 15 seconds to load the program. 

 

• 

The program is flashed with the command

 “pflash e000 10dfff ffa00000”.

Then you 

have to answer “y”, to a question about if you really want to do this. You will get information about 
the progress. First it says 

“Erasing block 0...1”,

 after that 

“Zeroing block 

0...1”

and at last 

“Programming block 0...1”. 

Disconnect power and remove the card, 

put jumper 4 so that it is closed. 

 

• 

If the new software require changes in the boot parameters, restart the MultiReader and type the 
command 

bootChange”. 

Afterwards you have to answer these questions: 

 

 

boot device 

ei(Ethernet or) ppp=/tyCo/1,38400 (Serial) 

processor number 

host name 

Boothost 

file name 

Path and filename to load able OS system (if necessary) 

inet on ethernet 

xxx.xx.xxx.xx:yyyyyyyy

 

(IP addressand netmask for this unit, 

example: 

192.168.0.50:fffffe00

)

 

inet on backplane 

(Not used)

 

host inet 

xxx.xx.xxx.xx

 

(IP address for host unit, example: 

192.168.0.30

)

 

gateway inet 

xxx.xx.xxx.xx

 

(gateway address if necessary)

 

user 

User name for host 

 

ftp password 

Password  for host 

 

flags 

0x88 

target name 

MultiReader name (example: 

MR1_410_4

)

 

startup script 

Path and filename to startup script

 

other (Not 

used)

 

 

  

TEST WITH APPLICATION SW 

6.1 

PC/ Terminal Connection to MultiReader 

Connect a 0 modem cable to the console port on the MultiReader CPU board. Here it is possible to use 
special test cables, with or without data transceivers, designed to fit to the circular connector or to the 
Han Modular connector.  
 
Switch on the Power Supply. After the booting process is finished, the prompt “ >” appears if connected 
to serial port 1/console or “COMMAND >” when connected to serial port 2. Then the MultiReader is 
ready for communication with transponders intended for the loaded application SW. 
 

6.2 

PC/ Terminal connection to MultiReader through a TPC 

Connecting a PC to the TPC can be done by using the Ethernet or the serial port 1/console port on the 
TPC’s CPU board. If the serial port 1/console port is used, the communication cable should be a 0-
modem cable. Connect the cable between the PC’s serial port (9pin) and the 25pin console port on CPU 
board.
