The QuasarMR1 offers two main options as a host interface – USB and optionally an

Ethernet connection. Additionally, versions with WLAN and ZigBee are available on special

The basic option for connecting the QuasarMR1 with your host PC is using the USB

connection every reader has.

1. Connect the reader with a 7.5 V DC power source as described before

2. Connect the reader with a PC using a USB cable (X4).

3. Install the USB driver. metraTec offers the needed driver including Installation
