GAT Writer KeySim 1.5

GAT Writer KeySim by GANTNER Electronic GmbH is a lightweight desktop utility that turns your GAT Writer reader into a “keyboard wedge.” When a compatible RFID/NFC transponder is presented, the software outputs the selected card data as keystrokes into any focused application—no SDK, middleware, or bespoke integration required.

Key features

• Seamless keyboard simulation: injects card data directly into web forms, POS software, ERP systems, spreadsheets, or any app with a text field
• Flexible data output: choose which data to send (for example, UID or application data, depending on reader/configuration) and how to format it (hex/decimal, length, padding)
• Customizable prefixes/suffixes: add characters such as tabs, commas, or an automatic Enter to streamline data entry workflows
• Simple setup: quick configuration with tray operation for always‑on convenience
• Broad compatibility: works with supported GAT Writer desktop readers and the transponder technologies they support

Typical use cases

• Rapid enrollment and registration (membership, visitor, and employee onboarding)
• Time and attendance terminals that feed IDs into existing software
• Cashless payment, vending, and locker systems that need simple ID handover to third‑party apps
• Ad hoc card number capture into Excel, browsers, or line‑of‑business tools

Notes

• Supported transponder types and data fields depend on the specific GAT Writer reader and its configuration
• System requirements and installation steps may vary; refer to GANTNER’s documentation for your hardware and OS version

With GAT Writer KeySim, organizations can add card-based identification to almost any software in minutes, avoiding custom development and simplifying everyday workflows.
