WINDOWS PLUG & PLAY SETUP:

On hosts with Microsoft Windows operating systems, the first time the device is plugged into a specific USB port, Windows will pop up a dialog box, which will guide you through the process of installing a device driver for the device. After this process is completed once, Windows will no longer request this process as long as the device is plugged into the same USB port. The device driver that Windows will install for this device is the driver used for HID devices an dit is part of the Windows operating system. When the dialog box pops up, follow the instructions given in the dialog box. Sometimes Windows will find all the files it needs on its own without giving any prompts. Other times Windows will need to know the location of the files it needs. If Windows prompts for the file locations, insert the CD that was used to install Windows on your PC and point Windows to the root directory of the CD. Windows should find all the files it needs there.

MOUNTING:

The reader may be mounted with screws or fastening tape as described below.

Caution

The Reader should be mounted such that the bottom (mounting side) is not exposed to the user. This is because the mounting side of the reader may be susceptible to eletrostatic discharge.
1.   The reader can be mounted on a surface in various ways:

•   By two screws through the surface attached to the bottom of the unit and running the cable on the top of the surface
•   By two screws through the surface attached to the bottom of the unit and drilling a hole in the surface and running the cable through the hole
•   By attaching to the surface with fastening tape and running the calbel on the top of the surface

NOTE

The mounting inserts are 3mm diameter, 0.5mm pitch, 6.4mm deep. The length of the screws used depends on the mounting surface thickness and the thickness of washers (if used).

The mounting dimensions are shown below. Determine the method of mounting required.
2.   Ensure the Reader is positioned on a flat, accessible surface with at least four inches of clearance on either end for room to swipe a card. Orient the Reader so the side of the LED is facing the direction of intended use.
  If fastening with tape is to be used, clean the area or the Reader will be mounted on with Isopropyl Alcohol. Remove the adhesive protection cover on the fastening tape, and position the Reader and push down firmly.
3.   Mount the Reader.
