If at anytime you reach a technical problem, head to the product page FIRST, it likely has a helpful video or information to help you troubleshoot.

Part 1, iClass Decoder:
"I got my iClass decoder from trying to read iClass SE Fob/ HID Prox Fob to send information over, now what?"
Plug in the reader, reply to order confirmation email and scan your fob, it will auto-populate, then I can program your fob for you! Instructions start at 0:50.

Part 2, UHF Tag Cloning:
"I got my UHF Tag Duplicator, now what?"
Head to UHF TAG DUPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS, the password for access is your email that you used to checkout on the platform. Download the program for your computer, windows or mac. Then run the program after plugging in the duplication device, place your tag on the reader in line with directions of the arrow on the dot, do the command: "r" then press enter, once it says read successful, place the blank tag you received from us and use the command: "w" followed by hitting the enter key, if you see success, it is good to go.
Troubleshooting tips: If the reader is having trouble reading or writing the tag, try shifting tag around near the middle of the device and retry command. Make sure not to have any other UHF tags within 1M of the device during commands and avoid duplication on metal surface.
Trouble at the garage reader: for windshield tags, fingers interfere with the frequency, so place tag in an envelop and re-try holding up to reader.
