In order to use your RFID Reader channels with physical hardware, you must patch your channels to a RFID Master.

First you must add an RFID Master to your devices (see: Adding boxes).

There are two ways you can patch channels:

Channel View

• In Build → Channels, select the RFID reader channel you want to patch.
• At the bottom you will see Patching.
• Select the dropdown to choose from ports of any RFID Masters you have added.
• You can choose empty channels or overwrite populated ones.
• You can search for channel names using the search bar.
• Once patched you can unpatch from here too.

Ports View

• Go to Connect → Select an RFID Master → Ports (ethernet icon).
• You will see a list of the 4 ports.
  • The dot on the right show if anything is patched to the channel. GREEN for patched, GREY for empty.
• Click on a port to see the channel associated with it.
• Click on the dropdown to see all suitable RFID channels that can be patched to that port.
• Click one of these channels in the dropdown to patch it to that port.
  • You can re-patch channels that are already patched elsewhere (it will tell you what port it is already patched to).
• You can search for channel names using the search bar.
