HP Authentication Manager Supported NFC & BLE Readers

Here is a list of certified NCF & BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) Card readers supported by HP Authentication Manager v2.x and our HP Secure Authentication Mobile Application v1.4.1.

The developers primarily support the PID & VID Numbers which as you can see span across some of the same Vendors, in particular the RFIdeas readers which some are rebranded to HP, and that's why some readers contain the same VID, Vendor ID, and PID - Product ID or Device ID as RFIdeas.

This means if you are already using these readers with your Mobile apps or NCF Cards then you can still use these Devices, however if you choose to use HP Secure Authentication Mobile app via the Bluetooth Option then we only support the Wave ID PcProx Plus BLE/ Wavie ID Mobile - RDR-305x1BxU and Elatec TWN4 Readers.

All of Our Readers were configured for Keyboard/Keystroke Mode, therefore if you are using existing readers that have been setup to use SDK Mode, then you will need to reset them accordingly.

For example, any of the RFIDeas Readers utilize a Windows Desktop application called PcProx Utility or rf IDEAS Configuration Utility v6.0.5, and under the SDK Option you will need to turn off (Disable Keystrokes for SDK) option.

If this is Enabled, then when you tap on a Card all you may get is a Beep sound and no values are passed to the Test Area and therefore to HP Authentication Manager.

On the RFIDEAS Reader, the IT Manager must setup the Reader to support a Variety of Devices, Cards etc. Including Bluetooth, As you see below, this reader has Mobile Credentials and ISO 14443A CSN active, meaning it will accept HP Secure Authentication BLE and a Basic NFC Card. So depending on if you are using an existing reader, you need to confirm that BLE Radio is active and it supports Mobile Credentials.

Elatec Readers

Elatec has their own Configuration application called AppBlaster. To enable BLE support your administrator must configure the readers to use the TWN4_xCx480_PRS104_Multi_CDC_Simple_Protocol.bix Firmware, and Program the reader to support 16 Digits output
