Hi
I have purchased one of your RFID Card Reader USB readers but I would like to connect it to an Arduino Uno. I do know that Parallax also sells the serial version of the reader but I thought it might be easy enough to just connect in before the usb chip if that will be possible.
If this is not a option please let me know or if it can be done were will I locate the 4 pins like on the serial version.
Thx
Leon

The USB interface on the RFID Reader USB is designed to connect to a USB host controller as you'd find on a PC. THe only way it would work on an Arduino is if the Arduino has a USB host controller that can enumerate the RFID Reader USB Client. If not you would need to purchase a n RFID Reader Serial for your Arduino.
