Hi there,
I just received my ID-12 rfid reader yesterday, but haven't been able to get any sign of life from it. I initially set up the circuit exactly as the following site describes (using an Arduino Diecimila):

I was wondering what the simplest test was for checking if the module is dead. Right now I have pin 11 to 5V, pin 1 to ground, and pin 10 connected to the positive lead of an LED (which is of course also connected to ground). Is this enough to check that the unit can pick up an rfid card? So far I'm getting nothing.
Thanks in advance!
