[Reader-users] Recalibrating the Reader

[james gashel]

Hi Cindy:

Recalibrating the Reader is quite easy.  You can probably talk 
him through it.  You will find the sequence of steps involved in 
the User guide.  It is really quite straight forward.  Just call 
into the tech support line if you do need more help.  You can 
also call Ann-Marie Laney at extension 2219, or Alison 
Hammerbacher, at extension 2222, if you don't get an answer 
through the tech support line.  Either Ann-marie or Alison are 
experienced with doing this.

You do need to be sure that the Reader has been plugged into a 
live outlet so it is recharged when you start.  Also, I would 
start by pressing the reset button.  You can start the 
recalibration steps after you hear a high-pitched chime.

Remember, you need to reload the software, using the SD card, 
after the recalibration.  This whole process should take less 
than 5 minutes.

Thanks, J.  G.
