DETECTOR
The RF detector device is useful to check NFC reader operation
mode: when it is placed on the active area, the RF field energy
powers the LED. The LED is blinking when the device is waiting for
a card. The LED brights continuously when it waits for a removed
tag answer. The wait timeout before the reader resumes card
detection (LED blink) may be long, up to several tens of seconds,
depending on the card communication protocol settings.

EAD DEVICE
Three power modes are available : Handset ON, Battery OFF (power by the field), and Handset
OFF (Battery LOW).
When using the device, the power mode is signalled thanks to the dual color LED.
Before the device connection to the USB port, it is in battery off
mode. It can be used to perform card emulation from a secure
element if previously setup.
After the device is connected to the USB port or after PC startup,
the LED remains OFF as long as no control software is started.
In this mode, the device may be used for battery low card
emulation from secure elements hosts as previously defined from
control software. It is not possible to read a card and any card shall
be removed in order to perform a transaction with a remote reader.
After the device has been started by control software such as NFC
Desk, the LED turns red for battery on mode.
It is then possible to read a card and perform card emulation under the
PC software control.
After the control software is stopped, the LED turns orange. The device is
now back to battery low mode. This mode is similar to battery off mode with higher performance.
