0565A03B-002 / EQT Medusa LegicADVANT USB
REVISION 1.0, 2008-02-26
The 0565A03B-002 is a RFID Read-/Write-Device (short: reader) which is compatible to all
Legic Prime cards. The reader also supports ISO14443A and ISO15693 and all cards
compliant to these standards. It provides an universal serial interface (USB) to output or
exchange data with a host computer (typically an Equitrac Page Counter Unit, a printer or a
copy machine) and a 13.56MHz inductive interface to supply power to and exchange data
with the Mifare/ISO compliant card (or other available form-factors such as tags, key-fobs).
The host computer can control a bi-colour LED and a beeper to interface with the user.
Mounting and Connection
The reader generates a magnetic field with the frequency of 13.56MHz which is influenced by
any electrically conductive material in close proximity to the device. When mounting the unit,
a distance to any such material of minimum 10 cm is required to ensure that there will be no
significant degradation of the performance in terms of read range and reliability. Mounting
the unit directly to metal would result in a severe reduction of read range down to zero
functionality. Care should be taken when testing the device after mounting at a problematic
environment: Read ranges and performance vary from card to card and very much from card
to tag or key-fob.
When mounting multiple readers, the distance between readers should be minimum 0.5 m in
order to avoid degradation of performance due to interference.
To connect the device to an Equitrac PageCounter, printer or copy machine, please make sure
the host system provides an USB socket intended for connection of the reader.
Operation
Whenever the device is connected to a proper power supply, it will switch on the internal
antenna and periodically scan for a card. Once a card has been detected, the card number is
read, the data converted and sent to the host system through the serial interface. To enable the
device to read cards, tags and key-fobs successfully, they should be placed centred above the
reader.

FCC:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference 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 to correct the
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.
