User Manual

The purple-blue information is the data sent by the PC to the reader, and the red information is the data returned by the

reader to the PC.

The function of manually sending data can be used by users to debug serial commands, and it has the function of

automatically calculating the checksum.

In addition, the attached document also includes the complete source code of this demo program (based on the C#

language development of the .Net platform) for user reference, so that applications based on this reader can be

developed at the fastest speed.
