New page

Emulator.xml is a file that contains the information used to start up a reader. Readers typically have a set of inputs that are required to be able to create it, for example IP addresses, number of antennas, number of GPIs, etc. This file is used to supply that information to the ReaderModule, which handles the creation of a reader.

The information in this file are basically of two types:
# Information that is common to all readers in order to start them. These pieces of information have their own tags and should be included in all the reader's emulator.xml file
# Information that is specific to the reader. Information of this type will be supplied using a <property> tag

The reader creation wizzard in the UI will automatically add places to collect information according to the <property> tags in the emulator.xml. For example, if an IP address is listed as a property in the emulator.xml, the reader creation wizzard will automatically add a space to collect that information.
