Default operation

Before anyone changes the configuration from its default, you can confirm that the unit is working.

These steps demonstrate that the hardware can detect and interact with an OriginPass demo mobile NFC pass, which is ready to work with the default configuration of your VTAP reader.

1. Obtain an OriginPass from Dot Origin by visiting https://originpass.com/VTAP/ and add it to Google or Apple Wallet. (You will require a username and password - contact vtap-support@dotorigin.com to get these.)

2. Connect the VTAP reader to your PC, using a USB cable.

3. Open a text editor, such as Windows Notepad.

4. When you tap the OriginPass on the VTAP reader:

   • Pass contents will be displayed in the open text editor, through keyboard/barcode emulation.

   • The feedback LEDs on the VTAP reader PCB will flash green. [VTAP100 or VTAP50 v2 only]

   • Your smartphone may signal with a buzz or beep.

   Note: Some Android phones will only interact if their screen is on, although it does not need to be unlocked. You may need to enable NFC in the settings for the smartphone.

   Note: If the pass detected does not match the key and ID on the VTAP, or is moved away too quickly to be read, the pass contents displayed may be an 8 digit random hex string, such as '08E22AC1', different on each presentation. OriginPass contents will be a consistent string, such as '3~ffymeK9f_mziYtA6~53999301628695~Valued'. Any separator, such as '~' or '|', will depend on your keyboard language settings. (See NFC card or tag settings for option to ignore random UIDs if needed.)

   Note: If local security settings prevent or limit the use of removable storage devices, or the connection of additional keyboards, an administrator may need to alter those permissions.
