Programming a Card Reader
Once the required Config Card is available, it can be used to easily program readers.
ICT card readers can only be programmed within 2 minutes of startup. In order to program the reader you will
need to disconnect power and complete programming within 2 minutes of powering up.
To program a Card Reader using a Config Card
1. Power cycle the reader to be programmed. The configuration must be completed in the next 2 minutes.
2. To apply the new configuration to the reader, place and hold the config card close to the reader.
3. When programming is successful, the reader will beep 4 times quickly and then restart.
If the reader beeps 3 times slowly the configuration has failed. Wait for the reader to restart and try again.
