OMNIKEY 5121 Ethernet Encoder Device Management
Management of a previously installed OMNIKEY 5121 Ethernet Encoder device is done using the
Encoder
menu of the OMNIKEY 5121 Ethernet Encoder Utility. Within the main dialog of the utility
application is the
Select Encoder
drop-down list. This drop-down list will display all OMNIKEY 5121
Ethernet Encoder devices installed on the current server or workstation. When this drop-down list is
not active it will display the Encoder Device Name String associated with the currently selected
OMNIKEY 5121 Ethernet Encoder device instance.
To manage a previously installed OMNIKEY 5121 Ethernet Encoder device, select the desired device
instance using the
Select Encoder
drop-down list of the utility application, followed by
Encoder
.
As shown above, the
Encoder
menu provides options for modification of the currently selected
encoder device, restarting the device, or deleting the device. Each of these options will affect only
the device instance currently selected via the
Select Encoder
drop-down list. If no OMNIKEY 5121
Ethernet Encoder device is installed on the current server or workstation, then each of these three
options will be disabled (grayed out) in the
Encoder
menu.
