If you are familiar with the Series A Reader and/or are replacing a
Series A Reader, note the following changes in the Series B versions.
•
New programming port connector, programming cable and dust
cap.
•
Soft-start power circuit reduces the current inrush when power is
supplied. This allows more Readers to be powered using a single
supply. The soft–start circuit also allows the use of current
limited power supplies.
Programming Cable
Catalog No. 2755-NC48
Dust Cap
New Programming Connector
Important: The Series A Reader uses the 2755-NC43 programming
cable. This cable is not compatible with the Series B Reader.
