1. Disconnect the power supply.

2.  Press  and  hold  the  Exit  Button  (if  installed)  or  make  a  shortcut 

between <<B>> and <<->> terminals on the reader controller. 

Then power on.

3. The  reader  goes  into  «Changing  MASTER  Card  Mode». All  the 

reader’s indicators start to flash for 5 seconds.

Any card swiped by the reader during this time will be taken to be the 

new MASTER card. 

The card swiped does not have to be a card already registered as 

a personal card.

  If the card swiped is that already set up as the MASTER two things 

may occur: 

o If the output button remains activated it will be deleted. 
o If the output button is not activated, the reader will remain con-

figured with its factory settings:  without a Master, without user 

cards and with the default times set.  

It will be clear that the Master card and all the data has been deleted 

as the green indicator led will continuously flash until the power supply 

is disconnected. 
Once reconnected, the reader will be deactivated, that is awaiting the 
setup of a new MASTER card.

NOTE: 

The reader will return to normal mode from any programming 

mode if a card has not been presented within 30 seconds.
