Rfid

The «RFID» tab of global settings (gear icon «Settings» → «RFID») is for companies that track equipment with RFID tags. Here you connect receivers (RFID readers) and warehouse stations. The navigation line shows how many receivers are connected.

Receivers

A receiver is an RFID reader that reads the tags on the equipment: at the warehouse gates, at an inventory desk. The table shows the receiver name, its ID, power, gates, operating mode and how it is connected: directly to rfid.golova or through a warehouse station.

To add a receiver, click «+» and fill in the window: a clear name (for example «warehouse 2, gate 1»), the receiver ID (at least 7 characters), the power from 0 to 100 (the higher the power, the further the reader sees tags), the reader type or automatic detection, and the operating mode fields (gates, gate monitoring, inventory antenna, reading period, zone names). Each field has a hint.

In the receiver row you can move it to a station or back to rfid.golova, open the reader settings, edit or delete it.

Warehouse stations

A station is a computer in the warehouse to which gate and warehouse readers are connected. It works without the internet and sends gate passages and operations to the system.

To connect a station, add a new station and get a pairing code, then enter it on the station computer following the instructions in the window. The table shows the station state (online, offline, waiting for pairing, code expired, revoked), the connected readers, the program version and the IP address. A station can be renamed, given a new pairing code or revoked.

If a station finds a reader that is not yet in the receiver list, a «Reader found» row appears with an «Add» button.
