For those looking to significantly cut down on driver installation issues during the integration process into PC environments, the ACR1281U-C2 Card UID Reader is the ideal solution. Due to its compatibility with the Human Interface Device (HID) standard, integration is made simple and effective. For added ease, this reader also supports several major operating systems such as Microsoft® Windows, Linux and other embedded systems.

Another benefit of the ACR1281U-C2 includes its ability to automatically and efficiently retrieve the Unique Identifier number (UID) of any ISO 14443 Parts 1-4 Type-A and B compliant contactless card.

Simply present the reader with a contactless card and the ACR1281U-C2 will read the UID and automatically return it to the PC. This reader also allows for the output of the UID directly into any editor including Notepad, MS Excel, MS Word, etc. Using the UID, cardholders can be identified accurately in various applications i.e. identity verification, time & attendance and access control.

The ACR1281U-C2 also features an impressive anti-collision feature which ensures that only one card is accessed when multiple cards are presented at the same time.
