Why can’t I use my keyboard on my mobile device when  

the reader is paired to the device?

  

ANSWER:

 If you have paired the reader to an iOS device,  

the mobile device treats the reader as the keyboard. The 

mobile device is expecting the input to come from the reader. 

If you need to use your keyboard, you need to disable your 

connection to the reader (unplug USB cable or disable 

Bluetooth connection). 

 

Disable Bluetooth by either turning off the reader power,  

or turning off Bluetooth on your phone 

(Figures 31–33).

 

 

Non-iOS devices may continue to provide keyboard access  

to the user even when paired to a reader.
