Appendix G — Defaulting/Saving/Resetting
Understanding and controlling your reader's active, saved, and default settings is criti-
cal to the operation of your reader.

Table A-10 Software Reset/Save/Recall Commands

<A> Reset (does not save for power-on)
<Ard> Reset and recall factory defaults
<Arp> Reset and recall power-on parameters
<Arc> Reset and recall customer default parameters
<Z> Save current settings for power-on
<Zc> Save current settings as customer default parameters
<Zrd> Recall factory default parameters and save for power-on
<Zrc> Recall customer default parameters and save for power-on
Power-on Parameters
Power-on parameters (saved by the <Z> command) are saved to NOVRAM and
recalled and loaded into current parameters when power is cycled or the <Arp> com-
mand is issued.
Customer Default Parameters
Customer default parameters (saved by
eters as power-on but are saved in a different, isolated section of NOVRAM. This can
allow a user to essentially create a backup set of parameters that can be recalled in
the event that the current parameters or power-on parameters have been changed
and no longer desired. It is important to note that a hardware default does not affect
these parameters. For example, a user that inadvertently changed communication
settings in power-on parameters in such a way that they either don't know the set-
tings or don't have the capability to communicate at those settings. By using the
hardware default to default the power-on settings to the known factory default, the
user can then recall their previously customer saved settings with the <Arc> or
<Zrc> commands.
