Sets the mode of the reader.
Mode 5 is the standard data collection mode.
Mode 1 is an online mode. Data from scanned cards is immediately transmitted out serially and is not stored,
unless Hybrid Mode is also turned on.
Mode 2 is a special mode for dumping the bit pattern of proximity cards, including prox, iclass, piv, and mifare.
The prox bits (1’s and 0’s) are transmitted through the serial interface when the card is presented.
This mode is useful when attempting to identify the format of the prox card.
