Prerequisites: Manage Software permissions. The primary and secondary sides of the Reader are running

normally. The required software has been uploaded to the Reader (see above).

CAUTION:

Activating inactive factory software/firmware on a running

system is not recommended. The factory software/firmware

may not be appropriate for the specific application.

CAUTION: Redundant Reader

During software/firmware activation the Reader will switch

over to the other side to process and report transactions,

regardless of the position of the mode switch on the SPM

module. Ensure that the other side is running normally and all

lane controller links are functioning. The Reader will be unable

to process or report transactions if it is unable to switch over to

the other side.

CAUTION: Non-Redundant Reader

During software/firmware activation (typically less than 60

seconds), a non-redundant Reader is unable to process or report

transactions.

On the Primary side:

The current reader settings are maintained between software updates, so it is not necessary to save settings before

activating a new version.

1. From the Other Available Software Versions table on the Reader Software page, identify and click on

the version to be activated.

Click the Activate button to activate the software. Click to acknowledge. There will be a delay before the

software becomes active.

Unless instructed otherwise, repeat above steps on the Secondary side to ensure both sides are running the same

software.

Deleting software

This procedure outlines the steps for deleting an inactive software version stored on the Reader. The Factory

software and active software cannot be deleted.

Prerequisites: You must have Manage Software permissions.
