Controlling the Reader
Sargas User Guide
37
Settings Page
The Sargas Settings Page enables you to change network, performance and security
settings. The page is divided into four main sections:
Reader (Power) Settings
(Gen2) Protocol Settings
Network Settings
Miscellaneous Settings
Changing these parameters may change the settings the Reader uses on startup. Be
careful to use correct values or you may not be able to connect to the Reader without
reconfiguring the reader via the console inferface.
Note
All settings set through the
WebUI | Settings
pages are
persistent
, they are
retained across reboots and become the default settings of the reader for client
applications. The values shown on these pages do not necessarily reflect the active
settings of the Reader if configuration parameters are transiently changed through
the MercuryAPI or LLRP. All changes made through MercuryAPI or LLRP client
applications are
transient
. The reader will return to its last saved persistent settings
(or default settings) if rebooted.
Note
Do not disconnect power until the save process is complete. Note that new RFID,
network and security settings take effect after saving.
Reader (Power) Settings
The Reader Power Settings are used to control the amount of RF Power transmitted by
the reader when active. The RF power directly relates to the range at which the reader
can “see” tags, the higher the power, the longer the range.
