Precision Instant ON

There are two types of Latitude ON. "ON Reader" doesn't require hardware, it's just software. "ON Flash" or "ON ECM" requires a module. I suspect that many reps don't know the difference. ON Reader is available free for all systems at purchase.

Right, but not on the precision Line. If you buy either the 4500 or the 6500, they charge you a dollar to have the reader capability on your system. I wasn't sure if it was a reader or a software module, but I knew I couldn't access it until I magically unlocked it by updating my firmware lol. The Latitude ON thing is probably functionally identical, but there are some software changes in the Reader 2.0 software that seems to prevent me from using the latitude ON variant.

 

Precision ON works the same way, don't know why Precision ON Reader is $1, but it's just software-based like Latitude ON Reader. Precision ON Flash would be the Precision counterpart of Latitude ON Flash.
