Major Components

USB HID or USB KB Connection

DynaPAD can be operated in two different modes: 

• 

HID (herein referred to as “HID mode”) and 

• 

HID with Keyboard Emulation (herein referred to as “KB mode”) 

When operating in the HID mode, DynaPAD will not use keyboard emulation. 

It will  behave like a vendor defined HID device. When configured for the 

Keyboard Emulation (KB) mode, DynaPAD will emulate a USB HID United 
States keyboard or, optionally, any international keyboard using ALT ASCII 
code keypad key combinations or customizable key maps.

Windows Plug-n-Play

On hosts with the Windows operating system, the first time the reader is 
plugged into a specific USB port, Windows will pop up a dialog box, which will 

guide you through the process of installing a device driver for the reader. 

Caution: 

When in Keyboard Emulation mode, if another key board is 

connected to the same host as the reader and a key is pressed on the other 
keyboard while the reader is transmitting, then the data transmitted by the 
reader may get corrupted. 

Installation Location

Installation location should be on a flat, accessible surface with at least four 

inches (4”) clearance on either end, to allow room to swipe a card.
