Dip Switch Settings

LED and beeper features are controlled by a dip switch pack located on the back of the reader. The first
three positions of the dip switch pack is all that is needed to change the output of the LED and beeper. The
fourth dip switch is reserved for future use. The following chart shows the dip switch setting and
functionality of the LED and beeper. The LED is bi-color and can provide Red, Green, and Amber states.
The beeper is a standard piezo or magnetic beeper.
