for the simple use of the reader in combination with your current database management
system.

chapter 3: frequently asked questions
1.
There is no serial-port located on the computer? What now?
Order a serial-to-USB convertor. This convertor makes it possible for the proximity
reader to communicate through a USB-port.
2.
Help! ‘Run configuration’ wasn’t checked while installing Bibliocheck4Lite. I
can’t find the configuration-tool anywhere.
Go to:
Start > (All) Programs > Nedap Library Solutions > Bibliocheck4Lite >
Configuration
.
3.
It seems that I can’t get the connection between the proximity reader and the
computer to work properly. What is going wrong?
Make sure that you do not miss a COM-port while testing. Also, make sure you click
the ‘
Save’
button every time after switching COM-ports.
4.
I’ve installed and configured the proximity reader following this Quick
Installation Guide. Still, I can’t seem to find the software anywhere using my
normal account.
A) While installing the software, be sure to use an ‘administrator rights’-account.
B) Also, while installing, be sure to check the ‘Everyone’-box.
This way the software will be available for every account using the computer.
Reinstalling the software will solve this problem.
1.
Go to:
Start > Run
.
2.
Type:
“appwiz.cpl”
(without the quotes).
3.
Remove Bibliocheck4Lite.
Follow the SOFTWARE INSTRUCTIONS which are in this Quick Installation
Guide.
5.
I’ve installed and configured the proximity reader following this Quick
Installation Guide. Still it isn’t performing well.
Make sure the reader isn’t mounted under an table/desk which contains an metal
frame. Metal causes the reader to not function properly.
