Windows guide

This guide has been done using Windows 10. Steps might slightly differ for other Windows versions

    1. Connect the AdvanReader-150 or AdvanReader-60 and the computer to the same network.

    2. If not yet known, find your reader IP: Scan Device IP (For this example we will assume a reader configured with the static IP 192.168.7.129)

    3. Configure the new IP of your Ethernet interface to 192.168.7.X (In order to set a valid IP, see

      1. Right-click on the network icon and Open Network and Sharing Center.

      2. Select Change adapter settings.

      3. Find the USB interface and go to Properties by right-clicking.

Right-click on the network icon and Open Network and Sharing Center.

Select Change adapter settings.

Find the USB interface and go to Properties by right-clicking.

      1. Go to IPv4 Properties.

      2. Set the static IP to 192.168.7.10 and the Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

    1. The IP of the reader is 192.168.7.2.

    2. Open a web browser on 192.168.7.2:3161, if there is no response:

Which static IP should I give to my Ethernet interface?

Imagine you have a reader configured with the static IP -> 192.168.7.129

We recommend configuring a Static PC IP were the 3 first values of the IP matching the IP of the Keonn's device:

    • IPv4: 192.168.7.X

    • Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

The X value must be replaced with a numerical value ranging from 2 to 254:

    • Value 1 should be avoided it is usually used as the default gateway.

    • Value 255 should be avoided as it is used for broadcast purposes.

  • Value 129 (applied for this particular example) cannot be used as it is the IP of the reader we want to access,

    • Avoid any value that might result on a duplicate IP on your network (Remember, every device inside your network must have a unique IP).

Unable to connect to my device

If at this point you are not able to connect to the device, we recommend trying the connection option: Direct USB connection
