Datamars COMPACT MAX Kurzanleitung Seite 4

Connecting COMPACT MAX to a PC via the USB port
• Connect COMPACT MAX to your PC using the USB cable provided with the reader.
• To access the ID codes stored in the reader's memory via USB, the reader must be turned off. Up to 4'000 ID codes can be stored in
reader. The COMPACT MAX memory is accessible thanks to S-ID companion SW, or in mass storage configuration.
In this configuration, available both on PC and MAC, COMPACT MAX is seen like a standard USB stick. Codes are recorded in the
"Session.txt" file, stored in a folder named CMAX and available on your PC or MAC.
• If the reader is turned ON while connected to a PC, the reader will behave as a PC peripheral and ID Codes will be sent to the PC via the
USB cable at each reading.
Two interfaces are supported, as described in the "Icons Legend of the Settings menu":
Keyboard wedge: the reader is seen by the PC as a keyboard. The codes will be displayed on the PC screen in any window
where a mouse cursor is active. No configuration on the PC is needed.
VCP: reader is connected to one of the Virtual Com Ports of the PC and sends the codes using RS232 protocol.
Codes are received on a hyper-terminal or using Datamars S-ID SW.
