into your asset-tracking solution are outlined below. This guide deals with step 1. Refer to the
Resonate RFID Reader Management
User Guide for information on the remaining steps.
In these steps,
Resonate
refers to
Resonate RFID Reader Management
, and your application refers to your own or your partner's application that processes RFID reads.
Install
Resonate
on one or more Linux machines (nodes).
When you run the online
Resonate
installer, it downloads the
Resonate
containers from Zebra's Artifactory repository. The offline installer runs without internet access. Before running either installer, you should run the online prerequisites checker and setup tool (for example, to install and setup MicroK8s); alternatively, perform the tool's steps manually.
From a browser, log in to
Resonate
to configure it and eventually to manage your RFID readers.
If required, configure
Resonate
to use your Single Sign-On (SSO) provider (for example, IAM/SSO) for authentication.
Run the
Resonate Device Initializer
utility on a Windows machine to initialize the readers that
Resonate
needs to manage, monitor, and configure; this also installs the Resonate Agent on the readers.
For automatic device discovery, run the utility onsite and on the same subnet as your RFID readers.
To initialize an explicitly specified list of readers, use the Device Migrator utility in conjunction with the Resonate Device Initializer. In this case, you can run the utility from any Windows machine, provided the network access is open.
Both the Resonate Device Initializer and Device Migrator utilities are single executables without an installer and with no outside dependencies.
Use the
Resonate
web interface to configure the RFID readers.
Connect business applications that consume RFID tag read data directly to each reader to subscribe to its data streams.
Configure
Resonate
to send email alerts to administrator users.
Configure
Resonate
to send alert webhooks (https POST messages) to your IT case management solution.1
