ID
TECH's Spectrum Hybrid Insert Reader is designed to read and decode
up to three tracks of magnetically-encoded information. It reliably
reads media conforming to ISO 7810 and 7811 standards. An optional
tri-colored LED guides the user through the reading process, indicates
when data is being processed, and signals successful and unsuccessful
reads. |
| Compatible
with a wide range of footprints and applications |
|
The
reader’s chassis is molded from a glass and lubricant-filled
engineering plastic that supports the magnetic head as well as a PCB
with a landing-style smart card connector. Separate molded bezels
(choice of standard, compact, flush mount, or metal) attach to the
chassis to guide the card and serve as mount for the LED indicator.*
The magnetic head is spring-loaded to ensure good contact with warped
or bowed cards. The smart card connector has gold-plated contacts
that create a .02 inch “wiping” action to ensure dependable
connection and long life. |

smart cards |
The
ID TECH Hybrid Insert Reader can also be configured to read and write
to Integrated Circuit Cards (ICC or “smart” cards), memory
or microprocessor cards conforming to ISO 7816 standards. The reader
itself is approved to Terminal Level 1 EMV 3.1.1 specification, and
is able to communicate with a host PC as a “plug-and-play”
smart card reader-writer under the Microsoft PC/SC smart card interface,
if desired. Programming the USB version is accomplished with a USB
Serial Driver that enables serial data to be input via a USB port
on the host computer.
* LED not available with metal bezel. |

The
ID TECH Hybrid Insert Reader is a fully-intelligent unit that can
be programmed to read all tracks or only selected tracks from a magnetic
stripe. It can also output data with terminating characters and up
to nine preamble or postamble characters to match a data format expected
by the host. In addition, the reader offers gate, latch, and Security
Access Module (SAM) options. |
