Autonomous Configuration
Tool v1.0
User Guide
Introduction
This document explains how to use the Autonomous Configuration Tool (ACT), version
1.0 and later, to configure the Micro module for autonomous operation. This provides the
ability to setup the module to read and output tag results without a host MercuryAPI
application by enabling hardware read triggers and savable configuration settings in the
module.
ACT is written using the high level MercuryAPI in Java. For more information on the
MercuryAPI see the MercuryAPI Programmers Guide and the MercuryAPI SDK, available
on the ThingMagic website http://www.thingmagic.com.
This document assume you have read the corresponding Hardware Guide for the Micro
module being connected to and understand how the reader is connected.
Note
Currently, autonomous operation can only be configured using ACT. Future
releases of the MercuryAPI will support saving the full configuration, including
autonomous read triggers to enable creation of custom auto-config utilities and
scripts.
Supported Hardware
Micro module with firmware v1.5 or later.
