This page sets the file locations where the Reader(s) looks for specific configuration information.
The Reader supports the HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS file transfer protocols. Directories are
specified in URL notation. Please consult the local IT administrator for guidance on the use of
these settings in the local network environment. If Readers will use the USB flash drive for
configuration information, all file location fields should be set to: file:/// as in the default settings
(except time server, which should be blank).
