HID ProxProgrammer Operation Manual 1050-904 Rev A
HID ProxProgrammer System Description
The HID ProxProgramming system is a contactless card and key tag programmer.
The ICC (Intelligent Control Card) contains the security and customer formats. This card will activate the
programmer and allow the system to be used. Without the ICC, the HID Field Programmer will not
function.
By using the HID ProxProgrammer PC software, the user is able to program and verify programmable HID
card and key tag products.
The software also allows HID proximity cards to be numbered (printed) using a Windows printer designed
for PVC card printing. System Reports can be printed on any standard Windows printer.

HID ProxProgrammer Operation Manual 1050-904 Rev A
Setting up the HID ProxProgrammer System
Hardware Setup
1. After unpacking, check to make sure that you have all of the equipment listed in the System
Equipment List on page 1. Make sure your PC is off.
2. Connect the HID ProxProgrammer DB9 cable to the selected Serial Port on the target PC.
(The HID Field Programmer software uses COM1 as a default setting.) To change the COM port
setting, refer to the section: Selecting a COM Port, pg. 5.
3. Connect the power supply to the HID ProxProgrammer. The power jack is located on the back of
the HID ProxProgrammer.
4. When you plug the power supply into the wall, you will hear a single Beep that indicates the HID
Field Programmer is on. The LED on the front of the unit will flash green once then turn red and
remain on after the power is supplied to the unit.
5. Boot up your PC.
Software Setup
1. Insert the HID ProxProgrammer Install CD into the disk drive. From the CD directory copy the
NETSETUP folder to your desktop.
2. Open the NETSETUP folder. Execute the SETUP.EXE program. This will begin the installation.
3. Setup will initialize, ask a few questions, and then complete the setup. A program group entitled
HID will be created and accessible from the START menu.
4. After the programmer software is successfully installed, proceed to the Customer Configuration.
Customer Configuration.

Introduction
HID ProxProgrammer Operation Manual 1050-904 Rev A
Customer Configuration
The HID Field Programmer software system is customized for each customer. The system file sysdb.sys
contains validation keys for each specific customer and their HID Field Programmer hardware. Once
Customer Specifics have been installed, the programmer and the software system should be ready to go.
1. Insert the HID Field Programmer Customer Specific Floppy into the disk drive. At the Start
menu select RUN and type A:\ Install.bat.
2. The batch file assumes that the target system hard drive is C:. If the assumption is incorrect, edit the
batch file, Install.bat and replace the C: with the appropriate designator before executing the batch
file.
3. The DOS shell that executes the batch file will indicate that files have been copied.
4. Close the DOS shell. The software has been successfully installed.
IMPORTANT NOTE :
Be sure to make a backup of the following files:
ICCDB.SYS
SYSDB.SYS
If your system crashes, you will need these files to restore your customer card format information.

HID ProxProgrammer Operation Manual 1050-904 Rev A
10. If you receive an error message, it may indicate that the tag you are attempting to program has
already been programmed or there is no tag present to program. If the tag has not been previously
programmed, it may mean the tag is damaged and therefore unusable.
11. You can present a different tag and click the RETRY button or you can choose to SKIP the tag. If
you skip the tag, you can program it later by choosing the Card Order Operations Menu/ Program
Tags. The program will locate the tags that were skipped and prompt you to program only those
tags.
12. You can also print in the programming screen.

HID ProxProgrammer Operation Manual 1050-904 Rev A
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting COM port selection
If the program indicates there are no COM ports available, contact your network administrator.
Troubleshooting the ICC
If an error message appears after you present the ICC:
1. Be sure the HID ProxProgrammer Customer Specific disk has been installed. Refer to page 2
for installation directions.
2. If the Customer Specific disk has been installed, the ICC may be damaged. Contact Technical
Support for information on a replacement ICC. 1-800-237-PROX.
NOTE: Remember to make a backup copy of the ICCDB.SYS file. If your computer crashes,
you will need this file to replace the customer specific information after reinstalling the HID
Field Programmer Software.
CD to floppy
If you would like to create a set of floppy disks from the CD:
1. From the CD directory DISTRIB\DISK144, copy the contents of each directory (DISK1
through DISK6) to an appropriately labeled 3-1/2 inch 1.44 megabyte floppy.
2. You can now use this set of floppies to install the HID ProxProgrammer Software.
