Microscan Default Parameters

Microscan default parameters are contained in the firmware and cannot be changed.

Software Defaults

Microscan default parameters can be recalled (loaded into current settings) with <Ard> command or recalled and saved for power-on with the <Zrd> command.

Hardware Default

If a software default and reset is not possible, it may be necessary to reset the reader by shorting (connecting) specific pins. This procedure has the same effect as the <Zrd> software command.

Important: For this reset to occur, this command must be executed within 60 seconds of a power-on or a reset.

• Apply power to the reader.

• If using an IB-131, locate pins 7 and 11 on the host connector.

Caution: Be certain that the correct pins are located. Connecting the wrong pins could cause serious damage to the unit.

• Momentarily connect these wires (or pins) and listen for a series of short beeps.

• Within 3 seconds, connect them again. A longer beep should be heard. If not, repeat the process.

Default on Power-On

You can also use the EZ button to default the reader by holding it down while applying power to the reader, provided that this feature is enabled.
