Configuring rf IDEAS Ethernet 241 using the rf IDEAS discovery tool

Notes:
  • rf IDEAS Discovery Tool requires firmware version 2.02 or later.
  • We recommend using this tool when deploying to many printers.
  1. From your computer, create a file containing the IP address of all rf IDEAS Ethernet 241 adapters.

    Sample file

    192.168.0.3
    192.168.0.120
    192.168.24.3
    192.168.25.6
  2. Run the discovery tool, and then load the file containing the IP address of all rf IDEAS Ethernet 241 adapters.
  3. Create an HTML file for pointing rf IDEAS Ethernet 241 to the LPM server.
    Note: A sample file is provided by rf IDEAS.
  4. Make sure that the following are added into the HTML file:
    data_serv_addr=<LB IP Address>
    data_serv_port=9780
    data_str=/lmc/rws/jsapi/v1/rfideas?profile=RFIDeas&cardid=$1&mac=$2&luid=$3&seq=$4&ip=$5
    data_retry_count=10
    data_retry_sleep=2
    data_long_beep=2
    data_shrt_beep=5
  5. Save the HTML file on a web share.
  6. From the discovery tool, type the web share URL.
  7. Select the printers, and then click Configure 241 Devices.
    Note: The data_serv_port setting does not appear in the 241 Configuration Settings list.
