1. INSTALLATION

Installation can be done in two different ways described below.
You should prefer the preinstall method.

* Run the script "Install_Driver.cmd"
* Follow the dialogues on screen.

Unattended driver installation is also available using above script with /s parameter:

1.2 Install Drivers Manually 
Here you install the drivers after plugging in the hardware using Windows built-in installation procedure:

- Connect your device to an USB port of your PC.
- Windows will then install several usb devices using Plug&Play.

- For the device "RT USB MRTD Reader" a "Found New Hardware Wizard" dialog box will appear.
- Follow this wizard selecting "Not this time", Next.
- Then "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)", Next.
- Select "Search for the best driver..." and "Include this location in the search:" 
  Here browse to the (extracted) subfolder "DriverFiles" from this zip, Next
- The "Windows Logo Test" warning has to be acknowledged by "Continue Anyway".
- Finish.

- For the device "USB Serial Port" repeat the steps above.


Notes:
Administrator grants are required to install above virtual com hardware drivers.

After finishing driver installation, open the Windows' device manager.
Now you will find an additional COM device "RT USB MRTD reader Com x".
If necessary, the com port number can be adapted in the properties dialogue.

The keyboard itself and other modules might be not available when the virtual com driver installation is pending.
The standard hid devices will be installed automatically afterwards.

Default RS232 settings: 
   19200-7E1
Above settings are done in hardware and can be different for customized solutions.



2. TESTING
=====================

To test the OCR reader, run "MCI 111 Demo.exe" and swipe a OCR card or passport.

This demo application requires .net Framework 2.0 or higher.
It is designed for standard OCR firmware and default hardware parameters (19200-7E1).

Alternatively you can always test the OCR module using some terminal program, such as Hyper Terminal.
For alternative hardware parameters, just adapt the RS232 configuration of your terminal program.



3. KEYBOARD WEDGE
=====================
As an alternative it's possible to output data as virtual keystrokes.
For doing so an utility is provided on request.

Please contact support@prehkeytec.de for getting the PrehKeyTec OCRWedge.
Follow the readme file there to install and configure this utility.
Important: Eventually you need to adapt the INI file's PORT=X setting to the COMx from step 1 above.
