# Configure Parity Stripping

1. Go to **Start >Run >Regedit**.
2. In the **Registry Editor**, locate the **ParityStripcountLeading** and **ParityStripCoundTrailing** values located at:

**HKLM\Software\HealthCast\ProxCardClient**

1. Modify them to indicate the value of **1**.

One bit stripped from the front and back of the data sequence is the most common scenario. If you feel your parity settings may be different, please contact your HealthCast Project Manager for assistance.

If you use the parity stripping setting, please ensure that your final bit count is 24 bits or more. A bit count of less than 24 bits will make badges unusable.
