To be able to use the pcProx Playback reader, it must be configured. There are two ways to configure
the pcProx Playback reader:
1. First, select one of the ‘Copy Locations’ buttons to obtain the correct card locations and fill in
the fields (Page, Appl Area, and Blocks) on the pcProx Playback Tab screen. Next use the button
‘Write Playback Configuration’ to transfer these locations to the attached Playback reader.
OR
2. First, select one of the ‘Copy Locations’ buttons to obtain the correct card locations and fill the
fields (Page, Appl Area, and Blocks) on the pcProx Playback Tab screen. Next, use the button
‘Save Playback’ to create and save a Playback file on your PC. This file is then used as a
command line option to auto-configure the reader on-the-fly. See section labeled ‘Auto-Run
Operation’ below.
The choices are described in detail below.
The pcProx Playback tab provides this functionality. The following are descriptions of the various
buttons in this tab:
Card Context: Credential 1, 2 and Card Gone
pcProx Writer for Log-on Users: The three sets of Card Context are used to tell the Playback reader
where to find the Credentials 1 and 2, and the Card Gone keystrokes.
Note
: The Book field is a future option not available yet.
The card location (Page, Application Area, and Sector/Block fields) must be the same for the set of
the Credential and Card Gone fields in the pcProx Writer for Log-on Tab and for the locations shown
in the respective fields on this screen. The easiest way to make sure the fields are the same is to use
the ‘Copy Locations from Log-on’ button (described below).
Once you have the all fields filled in with the correct choices, you can:
1. Use the ‘Save Playback’ button to save the contents as a file for later retrieval or for Auto-Run
usage.
2. Use the ‘Write Playback Configuration’ button to write this configuration information into the
Playback reader. After pressing this button, your Playback reader is now properly configured to
read this area of the card.
pcProx Writer for Swipe Users: The first Card Context is used to tell the pcProx Playback reader
where to find the swipe (or other type) user data.
Note
: The Book field is a future option not available yet.
