Using the configuration card

(Taken from the thread #1046)

There is a configuration card which says it has 28 output formats and supports QW/AZ ERTY keyboard layout.

I have the issue where i cannot see the CardID in the WebUI, but it will be sent to the Console Input directly (just like typing with a keyboard, but not hitting return key). I also changed the Reader.py.kkmoonRFIDreader to Reader.py. The Reader is Configured to read "29 E: work as QUERTY keyboard layout (default setting). "

I set it to Format 1, and voila, it worked. This means out of the box not all KKmoon Readers will work and you have to follow the instructions on your configuration card that comes with the Reader. For a Small recap, you have to (First read all the points and make sure you understand them):

1. Open some Text-Editor (Notepad, MCEdit, Nano, ... Can be run in different OS Versions like Windows or on the Raspberry)
2. Swipe your Configuration Card 3 Times in a row. It will display "config card 1", "config card 2" and "config card 3"
3. You will see the Format Text running through. If you want to set it to Format 1 (as I did), you have to unplug your reader when you see the Line "1 8hß10dße"
4. Plugin your Reader (beep), then Plug it out again (less than 2 Seconds!)
5. Plugin your Reader (beep), then Plug it out again (less than 2 Seconds!)
6. Plugin your Reader (beep), then Plug it out again (less than 2 Seconds!)
7. Plugin your Reader. It should now be Configured as Format 1. (yes, you have to unplug it 3 times)
