TERMINAL FEATURES
1999 LinkPoint® International, Inc. 9 L3FRET1 Reference Manual
Hardware Features
The primary hardware components of the LinkPoint 3000 terminal are the display panel, the card
reader and the keypad. Their features are detailed below in the description of each component.
The Display Panel
Each LinkPoint 3000 terminal has a built-in display panel capable of displaying up to 20 letters or
numbers (See Figure 6). The backlit characters and plastic screen enhance readability while
reducing glare. The 20-character, two-line display easily accommodates most display messages.
The LinkPoint 3000 terminal also supports a scrolling feature that allows users to read messages
longer than 20 characters.

The Cardreader
The LinkPoint 3000 terminal includes a dual track magnetic card reader, so the terminal can read
both track 1 and track 2. The cardreader reads the cardholder’s account number, expiration date,
name (track 1 only) and security data from the magnetic stripe on the back of all major credit and
bankcards.

Note
: When sliding the card (bidirectionally), face the magnetic stripe down and away from the
keypad.
