6 Configuration of the device
The device when used for first time needs to be configured.
There are two methods to do so. The network configuration can be easily changed by
Inveo “Discoverer” (http://inveo.com.pl/discoverer/) software:
6.1 Changing the device's IP address by Discoverer application.
When the “Discoverer” is opened and the relevant device is found, choose Interface list
box and click on Change IP button.
If Remote Config is disabled (enabled by default), it is necessary to configure the device
by changing the computer's subnet (chapter 6.2).
To enable the remote configuration it is necessary to enter tabs Administration
and check mark Enable Remote Network Config
Save the setup by selecting Save Config button.

[ 01]

6.2 Changing the PC's subnet address
After the device is connected to a network, a subnet address of a PC which is connected
the same network has to be changed.
To do so, go to the PC's MS Windows network configuration: Start->Control panel
->Network and Sharing Center->Network and Internet->Network Connections,
then choose the related controller and right click on „Properties”.
After selecting this option configuration window will show up:
Next choose "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)", double click on it and enter following settings:
Illustrative TCP/IP protocol settings
After saving changes by clicking OK, open a web browser and enter in the address line:
192.168.111.15. Next change the following: ("Default user name / password"
to admin/admin00))

Changing network settings in MS WINDOWS

Next select option „NETWORK”
To set up the network settings of the device, use the following fields:
MAC Address – read only,
Host ame – NET IOS name,
Enable DHCP – checking this box force use of the address assigned by the DHCP server,
IP Address – the IP address of the device (at this address, the device will be visible on
the network),
Gateway – network gateway,
Subnet Mask – IP subnet mask,
Primary D S, Secondary D S – DNS servers addresses,
HTTP Srv IP: – server IP (mode: „Control only by HTTP Client”),
HTTP Srv Port: – the server's listening port,
HTTP Resource: - resource file for the reader's reference e.g. /somefile.php.
Save the setting by clicking Save Config button.

[ 01]

6.3 Communications protocols and administration
The Administration settings allow for changing access password and to enable/disable
particular services in the device.
Admin Password change
To change an administrator password, in Current Password value field write a current
password. Next in appropriate value field ew Password write your new password and
confirm it at Re-type Password value field. The password can be blanked by leaving
new password value field empty.
Services configuration
The device allows to choose suitable services. To do that, a value of corresponding
service has to be check marked and then activated by Save button.
Enable MODBUS TCP Protocol – enables access using MOD US TCP protocol,
Enable SNMP - enables access using SNMP protocol,
Control onl b HTTP GET – the reader's HTTP Server work's mode is selected
Control onl b HTTP Client – the reader's HTTP Client work's mode is selected
Enable Remote Network Config – remote network configuration is selected (for
Discoverer application)
Enable TFTP Bootloader – enables a bootloader mode.
Attention:
TFTP Bootloader and Remote Network Config ought to be disabled during normal
work operation. It should be enabled for a firmware update only.

7 The device functions
7.1 Communication with the reader
User can choose from the following options to access the code readout from a RFID tag:
•through built-in web server, using a standard web browser (preferred
browsers are MOZILLA FIREFOX, OPERA, CHROME),
•HTTP server mode,
•HTTP client mode,
•MOD US TCP,
•SNMP.
7.2 Inbuilt www site
The reader status can be found again at Home tab in the reader's menu (default –
192.168.111.15) .
- SV: 0.35 – software version
- Last ID: 04001BB7BC – last tag readout in HEX format,
- Number Of Read ID: 1 – number of read IDs since the reader's reset.
Uwaga:
If readout at a last ID shows 04001 7 C (LOCK!) it indicates blocking of further tags
reading until releaseId (HTTP GET) command is sent or in case of Modbus, value “0” has
to be sent to 1004 Single Coil address.
User manual: Nano RFID / Nano RFID PoE Page 15 of 24
[ 01]

7.3 Integration with user's software
The Nano RFID reader may be used with a customer's own software, in server mode (by
choosing Administration → Control onl b HTTP GET) or in client mode (by choosing
Administration → Control onl b HTTP Client).
Server work mode (HTTP Server):
In this mode external host (client) connects to the reader and controls it by HTTP
protocol GET method. The client has to read status.xml periodically and after suitable
XML tags are decoded, (individual tags are explained in the chapter 7.4) it may send
back data and commands. The resource file status.xml let a user read all required
information, which can be entered to a database (e.g. the reader's mac address, inputs
outputs status, card ID). After the data processing the client is able to send back data
which is required for interaction with a user of the reader. The client can send
information to the reader which may control the accept/reject sounds, the LED diodes
blinking, a lock's bolt release, as well as displaying text on the reader display. In this
mode, every time a tag is read the reader blocks reading ability until the client triggers
releaseId=1 function.
Client work mode (HTTP Client):
In this mode the reader may be compared to an Internet browser. The client's page (The
reader's) sends a request to server and waits for answer. The server - the page which
shares data - waits for requests, then processes them and sends a response back.
The reader connects with the server automatically and sends a tag's readout to the
server resource by HTTP GET. In response the server may send a XML file with
commands which specify type and status of the reader's indicator system, e.g. the LED
diodes status, the sounds indicators and the like.
In this mode an advantage is that, immediately after the card readout the reader
automatically sends request to the server or the controlling application.
This mode allows easy integration with PHP, Node JS, MySQL and the like servers.

7.4 Viewing the reader status by HTTP GE T
The RFID IND-U2/U4 and RFID IND-M2/M4 readers can be controlled by HTTP protocol.
To view the reader's current status user may refer to the resource file by entering in an
Internet browser address line e.g. - http://192.168.111.15/s tatus.xml
It shows the resource file with basic information in XML format:
<status>
