Web Console Header
Figure 4-2
This header provides pull-down menus for each of the configuration function categories. Additional functions
include the user login and the currently loaded reader profile.
Login
The reader's default user level is guest. However, a user can login as admin. If not logged in as admin, the default
level is always guest.
The guest login level provides read-only access to the reader. Clients that login in at the guest level can read the
settings of the reader and can access the tags that the reader has inventoried. Clients at this level cannot change
the configuration of the reader.
The admin login level provides read-write access to the reader. Clients that login in at the admin level can read and
write the settings of the reader and can access the tags that the reader has inventoried.
Logout
After logging in as admin, the Logout button logs out of the reader. Logging out automatically sets the login level
to guest.
Profile
Profile is the currently active profile in the reader (see
reader profiles).
