RF IDeas WAVE ID Solo SDK CSN zwart kaartlezer

The WAVE ID Solo SDK CSN reader strips away complexity to deliver exactly what developers and integrators need: a pure card serial number capture device with no proprietary encoding, no middleware dependencies, and no configuration overhead. Unlike consumer-grade USB RFID readers that lock you into a single output format, this unit exposes the raw CSN/UID from HID Prox, EM410x, Indala, and AWID credentials over a standard USB HID keyboard or virtual COM port—making it the fastest path from badge tap to application logic.

Highlights

• Reads 125 kHz proximity cards and outputs only the card serial number (CSN/UID)
• Dual output modes: keyboard emulation (HID) or CDC virtual serial port
• Broad credential support: HID Prox, EM410x, Indala, AWID
• USB bus-powered with 6 ft attached cable—no external power supply needed
• Dual-color LED and audible beeper for instant user feedback
• Compatible with Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android (USB OTG)
• Includes RF IDeas Universal SDK for custom application development

In daily use

Place the reader next to a workstation, kiosk, or embedded system and connect the USB cable. When a user presents a compatible proximity badge, the reader instantly captures the unique serial number and sends it as keystrokes or a serial data packet. The LED flashes green and the beeper confirms a successful read. Because the device acts as a standard HID keyboard, no driver installation is required on most operating systems—it simply works with any application that accepts text input. For developers, the included SDK provides APIs for .NET, Java, and C++ to integrate card data directly into custom workflows.
