ThingMagic Astra - Manual (Page 45)

Controlling the Reader
Astra User Guide 45
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.
