URI Examples
Please note the specific format of the URI path will depend on the OS and drivers being
used. The following are some common examples but it is not an exhaustive list.
tmr:///com2 - typical format to connect to a serial based module on Windows COM2.
tmr:///dev/cu.usbserial - common format for the USB interface on MacOSX.
tmr:///dev/ACM0 or tmr:///dev/USB0 - common format for Linux depending on the
USB driver being used.
tmr://192.168.1.101/ - typical format to connect to a fixed reader connected on a
network at address “192.168.1.101”. This will try first to connect to an
port 5084, if no response then it will try to connect to an
on port 8080.
eapi:///com1 - typical format to connect to a serial based module on Windows COM1
eapi:///dev/ttyUSB0 - typical format to connect to a USB device named ttyUSB0 on a
Unix system.
rql://reader.example.com/ - typical format to connect to a fixed reader connected on
a network at address “reader.example.com” on the default RQL port of 8080
rql://reader.example.com:2500/ - typical format to connect to a fixed reader
connected on a network at address “reader.example.com” on the non-default RQL
port of 2500
llrp://reader.example.com/ - typical format to connect to a fixed reader connected on
a network at address “reader.example.com” on the default, standard LLRP port of
5084
llrp://reader.example.com:2500/ - typical format to connect to a fixed reader
connected on a network at address “reader.example.com” on the non-default LLRP
port of 2500
Sample files within the MercuryAPI SDK may be used implement an additional URI
(which is not “discovered” by the “tmr” URI):
tcp://reader.example.com/ - custom format to connect to a fixed reader connected
on a network at address “reader.example.com” on the default port of the tcp bridge.
tcp://reader.example.com:2500/ - custom format to connect to a fixed reader
connected on a network at address “reader.example.com” on the non-default tcp port
of 2500
Region of Operation
The Region enumeration represents the different regulatory regions that the device may
operate in (see reader specific Hardware Guide for supported regions). Supported
Region enumeration values are:
