Freddy789 commented 5 years ago

When im running that command nothing happens Ive tried ./ctx-idrw-203 no response in console ./ctx-idrw-203 -l no response in console ./ctx-idrw-203 -d /dev/bus/usb/001/007 -l this gives ./ctx-idrw-203: invalid option -- 'd'

Finally working ^^ thank you for this tool took me ages to get this reader to work

For anyone else with a simular problem type ./ctx-idrw-203 -d /dev/bus/usb// and you will get a beep from the reader ./ctx-idrw-203 -r /dev/bus/usb// will put the reader in reading mode and read a tag/card and print its id

Edit: It actually just works with just ./ctx-idrw-203 -r
