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.

LED

The reader has one LED on the reader body. The LED indicator will be either off, red, green, or amber. When the reader is not powered, the LED will be off. When the reader is first plugged in, the LED will be solid amber. After the reader is plugged in, the host will try to enumerate the reader. Once the reader is enumerated the LED will turn solid green.
