How can the RFID Server be restored to its factory defaults?
The standard method of restoring the factory default settings is to use Web Based Management. After login, the RFID Server can be set to its factory defaults using
How is the RFID Server prevented from getting an undesired IP address in DHCP environments?
The RFID Server uses DHCP-compatible BOOTP protocol to prevent this problem. In contrast to DHCP, this is based on fixed reservations for particular IP addresses for particular MAC addresses
How does the RFID Server get the valid subnet mask and gateway address?
To be able to communicate beyond the local network, the RFID Server requires in addition to the IP address the subnet mask and gateway address valid for the respective subnet.
The following three methods are available for initial assignment of the IP address. Detailed descriptions of all the procedures are found in the corresponding section of the manual for the RFID Server.
Why after replacing a Com-Server can you no longer talk to the "new" one under the "old" IP address?
The reason for this often has to do with the close (time-wise) use of an identical IP address for 2 devices having different MAC addresses. TCP/IP stations tend to use a dynamically administered
In the case of all terminal equipment that is connected to a network, communications problems can occur for which there would appear to be no reason at first glance. In such cases, it is helpful to record the data traffic of this equipment by means of a network analyzer. Notes on the procedure can be found here.
Why doesn’t the Com-Server output data on the serial port?
All Com-Servers use hardware handshake as the standard. Here data are only sent to the serial terminal device if the CTS control input has an enable level. If it is unclear which handshake
