About Connecting Dynamag Duo to a Host
To connect Dynamag Duo to a host computer using the USB port, follow these steps:
1)
Connect the USB cable to the host computer’s USB port.
2)
Power on the host computer.
3)
Depending on the host operating system and the device’s configuration, the operating system may
display setup status or instructions as it installs the appropriate device driver. After this process is
completed once, the operating system should no longer launch this process, provided the device is
always connected to the same USB port on the host.
4)
On the host, install and configure the host software you intend to use with Dynamag Duo (if you do
not yet have that software, you can use
MTNETDemo.exe
included in
DynaMAX / eDynamo / uDynamo / aDynamo / mDynamo .NET SDK for Windows
, available
from MagTek.com, to perform simple tests):
a)
Make sure the host software is configured to look for the device on the proper connection type.
b)
Make sure the host software knows which device(s) it should interface with.
c)
Make sure the host software is configured to properly interpret incoming data from the device.
For direct USB connections, Dynamag Duo may be configured to transmit data either as a
vendor-defined HID device or as an emulated keyboard.
5)
Use the host software to test swiping a card.
