WINDOWS PLUG AND PLAY SETUP
On hosts with the Windows operating system, 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 keyboard devices and it
is part of the Windows operating system. When the dialog box pops up, follow the instructions
given to you in the dialog box. Sometimes Windows will find all the files it needs on its own
without giving you any prompts. Other times Windows will need to know the location of the
files it needs. If Windows prompts you 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
1.
Ensure the Reader is positioned on a flat, accessible surface with at least 4 inches
clearance on either end for room to swipe a card. Orient the Reader so the side with the
LED is facing the direction of intended use.
If fastening tape is to be used, clean the area that the Reader will be mounted on with
isopropyl alcohol. Remove the adhesive protective cover on the fastening tape, and
position the Reader and push down firmly.
2.
Mount the Reader.
