I'd like some advice/help on the above topic.
Specifically, I'm trying to program a card reader through
COM1 with a Microsoft C (v5.1) program.
To initialise the lock, the docs state that "break level must be
off more than 2 seconds".
That's got me stumped. What is break level? Can I program it from C?
If so, how?
Thanks, 
	Steve
