In the past, RFID controllers had multiple jumpers and DIP-switches that were used
to set configuration parameters. C0405-Series RFID Controllers do not require
jumpers or DIP-switches because they are software configurable via commands sent
from a host PC as well as through the use of a Cobalt HF Configuration Tag.

In the event that serial communication parameters become improperly assigned,
recycle power to the RFID controller while holding the Configuration Tag in the
controller's RF field. When power returns to the controller, factory default settings will
be read from the Configuration Tag and the controller's internal configuration will be
reset. For the C0405-485, this Configuration Tag can also be used manually to set
the device's Node ID. It is recommended to write the product serial number on the
tag and store it in a safe place.
