Because of its high RF power, it has to be imperatively connected to a native USB port of a computer, or a self powered USB hub able to deliver up to 500mA according to USB standard.To avoid improper operation:Prefer connection to a rear USB port directly handled by the motherboard.Avoid use of USB extension cable.Avoid replacement of the existing 1 meter USB A to miniB cable by a longer one.Note: Some PCMCIA USB2.0 extension boards for handheld computers are not able to deliver 500 mA.3.3.1 Driver installationConnect the reader to the proper USB port.Windows will detect it as a new device.Insert the installation CD, and follow the instructions on screen.You will be asked to choose between:Standard virtual COM driver, Card reader ASK (dll) proprietary driver, or  PC/SC  driver. Chosen driver will depend on the customer application software requirements.3.3.2 SoftwareThe  RDR is delivered by default with  an embedded  application firmware called CSC  which supports the ASK cards and C.ticketfamilies.This firmware is upgradeable by download.The  external  LEDs  of  the  reader  can  be  controlled  by  customer  applicative  software  using CSC software commands. On power on, red led is active.Complete  driver  installation,  furnished  demonstration  software,  and  tools  for  customer application  software  development  are  described  in  a  specific  “software  user  manual” document.

These limits are designed to provide a reasonable  protection  against  harmful  interferences  in  a  residential  installation.  This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used  in  accordance  with  the  instructions,  may  cause  harmful  interference  to  radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try the correct interference by one or more of the following measures:-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions.  (1)  This  device  may  not  cause  harmful  interferences.  And  (2)  this  device  must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.The ASK RDR 417 reader was submitted and a grand of authorization received from the FCC as device under the intentional radiator requirements of Part 15, Subpart C.Compliance  accessory: The accessory  associated  with  this  equipment  is  a shielded USB cable including clipped ferrite core. This accessory is required to be used in order to ensure compliance with the FFC rules.Caution :Any changes or modification not approved by ASK could void user’s authority to operate the equipment. Switching power mode adaptors are prohibited.It is strictly prohibited to remove the ferrites from the device.5.2 CE compliance statementThe ASK RDR 417 reader is in conformity with European requirements, this product has been assessed to the following standard:EN 300330EN 301 489-3EN 60950-1
