Plug the Coupler into a USB port
Plug the coupling device into one of the computer’s USB ports.

Verify everything is OK
At this step, SpringCard PC/SC Diagnostic application is needed. As it is included in the QuickStart package, it has already been download. You just need to search it by using the Windows start menu and launch it.
The application shows all the PC/SC couplers connected to the system. Verify that one of them is SpringCard CrazyWriter HSP.
Then put a compliant contactless card, NFC tag or RFID label onto the CrazyWriter HSP. It makes sounds and lights green. The PC/SC Diagnostic application shows the card’s Answer To Reset (ATR) identification string.
Your CrazyWriter HSP is now ready to play with!
