How to use
Connect the AXAGON CRE-SMPC PocketReader to a device using its USB-C connector; the reversible plug allows easy insertion regardless of orientation.

Recommendations
Use the reader with cards that have visible contact pads and keep the device clean and dry. For mobile use with iOS or Android phones, ensure the phone supports external USB-C peripherals and install any required eID app. Store the reader folded and avoid exposing it to strong mechanical stress to maintain the USB-C connector and folding hinge.
