Drivers: 


Most ID TECH readers, including SecureMag, will work with Windows native device drivers. I.e. There is no need to install additional drivers.

  1.  Apple's Camera adaptor works with MM2, SM, SecureKey, SREDKey alone, and Augusta via an external powered USB hub.

  2.  OPOS Demo will send CMD "53 4D 01 31" to set the reader to POS mode for working in OPOS

  3.  The USB HID and USB KB output contain the same data. In KB mode, each byte of the hex output splits into two characters except for the mask data field which is in ASCII format. The LRC and CS are calculated based on HID bytes length (per engineering)
