PORT-POWERED RS-232 INSERTION READER 
File Name 
MTPPINSR.VXD 
Part Number 
30037339 
Friendly Name(s) 
Port-powered insert reader 
Remarks 
If events_on is enabled, the driver will send /event 1 M when the card is 
inserted. It is suggested that events be disabled (/set events_on 0) before 
the data is read to prevent the removal event from being included at the end of card 
data. If a card has already been inserted when the driver is opened, there will not be 
any notification when events_on is enabled. Consequently, it is recommended 
that /get card_stat be issued immediately after opening the driver to see if a 
card is blocking the sensor.
