    It is important. Posts #3 & 4 warned about it and the second photo in Post #7 shows it. The online video I used as a guide also shows it as a separate step.

    Except it is neither a magnet nor is it round.

    It is an RFID chip and as you can see from the photo in post #7 (the black object on the right), it is rectangular with one corner cut off.

    Maybe it is a language thing and lost in translation, but I don't see anything round in the "Bottom picture on right".

    I do not even see the picture :LOL:

    If he means this from post 7, he is geometrically challenged. It is not round.

    The only pictures are in post #7, so that is to what I, at least, am referring.
