USB HID or USB KB Connection
The DynaPAD can be operated in two different modes:
•
HID (herein referred to as "HID mode") and
•
HID with Keyboard Emulation (herein referred to as "KB mode")
When operating in the HID mode, the DynaPAD will not use keyboard emulation. It
will behave like a vendor defined HID device.
When configured for the Keyboard Emulation (KB) mode, the DynaPAD will emulate
a USB HID United States keyboard or, optionally, any international keyboard using
ALT ASCII code keypad key combinations or customizable key maps.
Card Read
A card may be swiped through the reader slot when the LED is solid green or
flashing green. The magnetic stripe must face toward the keypad and may be
swiped in either direction. If there is data encoded on the card, the DynaPAD will
attempt to read the data, encrypt it, and then send the results to the host via a
USB HID input report or, if in Keyboard Emulation mode, as if the data was being
typed on a keyboard. After the results are sent to the host, the reader will be ready
to read the next card or accept manual entry of card data for a card-not-present
transaction.
Windows Plug-n-Play
On hosts with the Windows operating system, the first time the reader 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 reader.
Mounting Options
The DynaPAD may be mounted with fastening tape or Velcro as described below.
Attach the unit to the surface with fastening tape or Velcro and run the cable on the
top of the surface. Ensure the DynaPAD is positioned on a flat, accessible surface
with at least 4 inches clearance on either end for room to swipe a card.
If fastening tape is to be used.
Clean the area that the DynaPAD will be mounted on with isopropyl alcohol.
Remove the adhesive protective cover on the fastening tape, then position the
DynaPAD and push down firmly.
