1 Introduction
Kronegger GmbH. provides customer support and optional design in services for
properly integrating the products. Since we do not have full information on customer’s
applications or products, it is due to the customer to verify that the integrated
products are suitable for the application intended and that no patents or intellectual
property rights are infringed. Integrating the products into the customer’s application
is a development process that requires special experience, professional skills and
involves usual technical risks. Kronegger GmbH. assumes no responsibility or liability
for customer’s applications, their performance, the required development effort,
production, installation, operation, their suitability, reliability and safety. The products
are not designed for applications where malfunction could cause potential risk of
death, personal injury or environmental damage.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
If using a permanently affixed label, the modular transmitter must be labeled with its
own FCC identification number, and, if the FCC identification number is not visible
when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device
into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed
module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains
Transmitter Module FCC ID ZKCPP-0403-3003 or contains FCC ID ZKCPP-0403-
3003”. Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.
FCC Compliance Statement:
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 interference, and (2)
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
The manual has been written to the best of our knowledge. We do not guarantee the
correctness and completeness of the provided information and insist on the good
practice of crosschecking during the customer’s development process through
sufficient testing coverage. Feedback on errors in the manual are highly appreciated.
This document may be used to support the integration of Kronegger products. Any
other use, duplication, storage or circulation is not authorized shall be prosecuted as
a violation of copyright laws.

2 Getting Started
As factory default the data are transmitted at 115200, n, 8, 1 and no handshake. Two
protocol modes are available. As default the binary protocol is used. To change the
protocol type or the baud rate you have to configure the EEPROM (see EEPROM
Memory Organization).
First of all you need a Mifare+ reader with an USB cable (Type A to mini B)
For the communication with the reader you have to download a virtual com-port
driver (VCP) for the USB interface. Please check the following link for the latest
version:
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
The driver will map the USB to a serial communication port. Install the driver and
connect the reader. It will show “new hardware detected.” You can check your setup
under System Setting/System/Hardware/Device Manager to find out which com-port
had been assigned to your reader. Optionally you can change the com number in the
advanced settings of the com-port.
For the communication with the reader you need the ReaderTool which is delivered
with any Kronegger Reader. The Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 (or any higher
version) needs to be installed first in order to run the ReaderTool:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=0856EACB-4362-4B0D-
8EDD-AAB15C5E04F5&displaylang=en
The ReaderTool needs no installation, simply start it and the reader will be selected
automatically. Now you can communicate with your Mifare+ reader.
Step by Step:
Download and install the FTDI driver
Connect the Reader via the USB cable to the PC
Download and install the Microsoft .NET Framework
Start the ReaderTool
Now you can communicate with the reader
