Reading Tags with the Speedway Revolution Reader
1) Connect reader to a DHCP-enabled network
a) Connect the reader directly to your Ethernet network using a standard
Ethernet cable (a crossover cable is not necessary).
b) Connect the RJ-45 connector on the reader to a LAN drop or network
switch. A typical set-up is as follows:
c) This product is intended to be supplied with a Listed/Certified power
supply, marked LPS or Class 2, with 24Vdc output, rated minimum 2.5A.
When supplied from an IEEE 802.3af (Power over Ethernet) compliant power
source which is certified by the appropriate agencies, the RF transmit power
is limited to +30dBm. (Ce produit est conçu pour être alimenté avec une
alimentation Mis / certifiés, marqué LPS ou de classe 2, avec sortie 24V, 2,5
A nominal minimum. Lorsqu’il est fourni à partir d’une norme IEEE 802.3af
(Power over Ethernet) de la source d’alimentation conforme qui est certifié par
le organismes appropriés, la puissance d’émission RF est limitée à 30 dBm.)
d) Ensure your PC has Bonjour Print Services enabled (install if necessary)
e) If desired, test your reader connection by pinging hostname.local. The
hostname follows the format SpeedwayR-XX-XX-XX where XX-XX-XX is the
last three couplets of the reader’s MAC address (printed on reader label).
(e.g., ping speedwayr-10-28-42.local)
NOTE: If your network does not support DHCP, use a Cisco-style console cable (RJ-45 to DB9)
for a direct RS-232 serial connection to the reader. The reader’s RShell command line interface
can configure a static IP address for the reader (p.16, Installation and Operations Manual). Once
completed, you can connect the reader over Ethernet.
2) Set reader region and check firmware version
a) Connect to reader WebUI using a web browser
http://.
b) Log in to the reader. Default credentials are:
user name: root
password: impinj
c) Select your region from the drop down list. You, the user, are responsible
to ensure operation with the correct RF settings and are solely responsible
for any fines and other damages due to incorrect or non-compliant country/
region settings on your reader. NOTE: GX1 and GX2 readers have no region
pre-configured and will not transmit RFID signals until region is selected.
