OPERATING MODE
Booster (only Driver-ID)
Up to 16 bytes of data from the personal identification card is read. The Vehicle-ID is omitted.

Vehicle-ID combined with up to 11 bytes from the personal identification card is read.

Vehicle-ID and Driver-ID combined with Tacho-Counter value. If this option is selected than automatically
extended-length is selected.

FRAME LENGTH
This affects the length of the message sent to TRANSIT reader.
Extended length (longer Driver-ID)
Select extended-length in order to support all transponder types and maximum amount of data. The
extended-length may be not compatible with older firmware versions in the TRANSIT reader. You might
need to upload new firmware into the reader.
The identification speed is a bit slower compared to applying standard-length.
Standard length (backwards compatible, faster identification)
Select standard-length in applications where compatibility with older types of transponders or where fast
identification is important.
Please note that when reading low-frequency cards with a Transition-Booster this setting is not used.
For NEDAP and EM cards the extended-length is not required and therefore the Booster will automatically use
standard-length (even if extended-length is selected in the configuration).
For HID PROX the extended-length is required so extended-length is used automatically if such a card is
identified (even if standard-length is selected in the configuration).
