USB Connected Reader Installation
1. Connect the reader with computer; plug the USB connector into
your computer’s USB port.
2. When the reader is operational, the LED illuminates.
3. For contactless operation, hold the card next to the reader logo.
For contact smart cards, insert the card into the reader with
contacts facing up.
4. The LED blinks when the reader is exchanging data with a card
(reading/writing).
To ensure that RF exposure levels remain at or below the tested
levels, a minimum safe separation distance of 10 cm between the
user and the reader is required for US/Canadian RF exposure
compliance.
Pour garantir que les niveaux d’exposition aux RF restent égaux ou
inférieurs aux niveaux testés, une distance de sécurité minimale de 10
cm entre l’utilisateur et le lecteur est requise pour être conforme aux
normes américaines et canadiennes en matière d’exposition aux RF.
