Settings Page

The Astra Modify Settings Page enables you to change network and Reader security

settings. The page is divided into seven sections:

RFID Protocol Settings

Network Settings: All Interfaces

Network Settings: Ethernet Interfaces

Network Settings: Wireless Interfaces

Boot Option Settings

Reader Identification Settings

Security Settings

Changing these parameters changes the settings the Reader uses on startup. Although

boot options and network settings can be modified, be careful to use correct values or
you may not be able to connect to the Reader without restarting in Safe Mode.

Note

Do not disconnect power until the save process is complete. Note that new RFID,
network and security settings take effect after saving. Boot-related options are
saved but DO NOT take effect until the Reader is restarted (see

Restart Page

).

Therefore, to ensure that all new settings take effect, it is recommended that you
restart the Reader after saving the new settings and after reconfiguring.

RFID Protocol Settings

The RFID protocol settings take effect on the Reader, immediately after saving the

settings. A restart is not required for RFID protocol settings to take effect.
