Using the Reader
The reader supports the first two contactless and the first contact card types/formats presented after
power-up. For example, encoded MIFARE and encoded MIFARE DESfire (in this example, unencoded
cards would not be recognized). The reader enters this configuration mode whenever power is re-applied.
A reader Setup menu can be displayed by pressing the * and # keys simultaneously while power is
applied. You can use the menu to change the contrast and language used for the LCD (default English),
and view/clear the three card types/formats programmed. At the prompts, press * for No and # for Yes.
