Descriptions of Available Connections
USB PORT
Linking with USB flash disk for remote data transfer.
TCP/IP PORT
Connect with a CAT5 cable for LAN connection, one end to terminal’s port and an-
other end to the computer’s TCP/IP Port.
TCP/IP for Single Connection
Linking the terminal to a single computer using TCP/IP
requires Ethernet 10/100Base-T Crossover Cable. The
cable can be used to cascade hubs or to connect Ether-
net stations back-to-back without a hub. It works with
both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.
TCP/IP for Network Connection
Linking the terminals to multiple computers using TCP/IP requires Ethernet 10/100Base-T Straight Thru
Cable or “whips”. The cable works with both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX, connecting a network interface
card to a hub or network outlet.
POWER SUPPLY PORT
Insert the Power Adapter point to this port for power.
RS485/WIEGAND INPUT CONNECTION PORT
RS485 Single Connection: Connection to a single computer using RS485 wire.

the IP address, locating the specific terminal is not possible. To input the IP ad-
dress of the terminal: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > IP Addr > Key in IP
address.
USING TCP/IP
It is important to setup the Ethernet to connect the terminals using TCP/IP connec-
tion. Setting up the Ethernet is done by enabling the Ethernet function: Press

Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > NetMask > Insert the numbers.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Gateway > Insert the numbers.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > NetSpeed > Choose the speed of your Eth-
ernet connection.
USING RS232 CONNECTION
For connection via RS232,baudrate is the determinant of communication speed be-
tween the terminal and the software. The higher the baudrate, the faster the speed is.
To turn on RS232 connection and set the baudrate: Press Menu > Options >
Comm Opt > RS232 > Change the RS232 connection to Y.
To change baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Baudrate > Change
the Baudrate accordingly.
USING RS485 CONNECTION
For connection via RS485, baudrate is also the determinant of communication
speed between the terminal and the software but the speed must be according to
the speed of the converter. Check your converter for the speed.
To turn on RS485 connection and set the baudrate: Press Menu > Options >
Comm Opt > RS232 > Change the RS485 connection to Y.
To change baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Baudrate > Change
the Baudrate accordingly.
Using USB to Download/Upload Data
