PROTIME DESKTOP CARD READER INSTRUCTIONS

The badges you will issue need to be correctly set up as they are currently on the wrong settings.

Badge Settings

Right click on the BADGE ICON in your lower right hand desktop bar.

Select BADGE READ FORMAT.

Ensure your BADGE READ format is set to DECIMAL 10 DIGITS. This ensures all cards are read as the same type with the same number of digits. It is currently set at HEX, which is incorrect! HEX reads the badges with LETTERS and NUMBERS. We want just NUMBERS.

If your badge is showing as just numbers but there are only 9 or 8 digits long, this means there are invisible ZEROS at the beginning. Input as many 0 (zeros) as necessary before the numbers to ensure its 10 DIGITS LONG.
