ID
TECH’s Hybrid Partial Insert Reader is designed to read on insertion
and decode approximately 2½ inches of magnetically-encoded
information on a single track. (Additional tracks can be supported
with a change to the I/O connector.) It reliably reads media encoded
to meet ISO 7811 standards. TTL-level “data” and “clock”
signals are output for each track. The 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 and/or
EMV standards. |

Designed
for a wide range of applications |

The
reader has “card detect” switches both front and back,
so it’s easy to tell when the card is fully seated and when
it is either partially or fully withdrawn. Electrostatic Discharge
(ESD) protection makes the reader well-suited to dry, carpeted environments.
Added pressure on the inserted card keeps it from be-ing accidentally
pulled out (if tethered, for instance, by a coiled cord). And optional
LEDs can illuminate the slot (or the optional translucent bezel) to
make it easier to find and use in low light levels. |
| Works
as a drop-in replacement for other units |
| There
are two different bezels available with the ID TECH Hybrid Partial
Insert Reader, depending on the unit being replaced. Both are reinforced
with metal, eliminating the need for the mounting bracket re-quired
by most other manufacturers. The seven pin-out configuration on the
back makes interconnection with a standard connector simple, and its
TTL output can be configured to be compatible with any other reader. |
| Provides
reliable, low-cost service |
| 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. The magnetic head is sprin-gloaded
for good contact with warped or bowed cards. The smart card connector
has gold-plated con-tacts that “land” on the ICC’s
contacts and create a .02 inch “wiping” action to ensure
a dependable con-nection and long life. A “card seated”
switch signals when the card has been inserted into the unit and full
connection has been made with the ICC contacts. |
