Operating Instructions
Basic Card Reading and Writing
This section outlines the general procedure for reading and writing cards.
- Power on the device.
- Navigate to the "Smart Card Copy" or "ID/IC Card" function using the arrow keys and OK button.
- Place the source card (the card you want to copy) on the sensing area of the device.
- Press the READ button. The device will scan for the card's frequency and data.
- Once the card is read successfully, remove the source card.
- Place a compatible rewritable blank card (e.g., UID card for 13.56MHz, T5577 tag for 125KHz) on the sensing area.
- Press the WRITE button to transfer the data to the blank card.
- A "Write card success!" message will confirm the operation.
Note: The device supports automatic stepless full frequency sweep to detect various card frequencies.
Decoding Encrypted IC Cards (PC Connection Required)
For encrypted IC cards, the device requires connection to a computer for decoding.
- Connect the RFID Copier to your computer using the USB cable.
- The device will enter decoding mode.
- On your computer, open the provided decoding software (e.g., "NewCopy 2018 smart card Copy machine").
- Place the encrypted IC card on the device's sensing area.
- Follow the software prompts to initiate the decoding process. The software will display progress, indicating successful decoding with green squares.
- Once decoding is successful, the device will prompt you to place a copy card and press the WRITE button.
- Place a compatible rewritable blank card on the device and press WRITE.
Important: The software is designed for legitimate use. If your computer's security software flags it, it might be a false positive. Ensure you download software only from trusted sources.
