automatically detects the type of cable you are using.
Step 2
Turn the reader on
Turn on the power supply for the reader. The reader is supplied with power either via a
connected ASM cable or via the power IO RS-232 cable or PoE cable, see also Connecting

the Power LED shines green. The reader is ready for operation.
