    Which RFID readers do you use for KMs?

    I was wondering which Card Readers you are using in for RFID card login?

    Curently we are using TWN4 from Elatec, but they are either not available or super expensive.

    Any good alternatives that have drivers for different FWs?

    Thanks for the answers.

      Hm, I don't know how to setup those on machine.

      We have cards with HEX code. And if I use them as keyboard HEX values are not input as a password. Setting it up though Service Mode STOP - 9 doesn't work when cause rn Loadable is missing.

      Usually I program TWN4 reader and then load Loadable driver and enable as Authatincation card in Stop-9 menu in service mode. I don't know how would I setup these Generic card readers.

        Maybe someone else can answer about setting up the HID card readers. I've never set them up just remove from off lease machines I buy for resale.

          We use Y-Soft readers, never seem to have a problem, KM supply the LDD driver, I've got the Y-Soft card reader tool, so I can change the protocol, depending on which fob/card is being used

            I was looking for Y-soft card reader tool but didn't find any links. I have so many of old ysoft readers but can't program them. I've tried with PCProx but they are not seen by the app.
