The “Output Sequence” in the software allows the user to configure the sequence in
which the numbers are sent to the PC regardless of the order in which they are printed on
the check. For example, look at the configuration shown in Figure 2. If a business check
is read, the sequence of the data stream will be “Auxiliary” then “Transit” then “On-Us” and
finally “Amount” (if present). If “Auxiliary” was not selected to be the first field to be sent,
it will not be sent first even though the “Auxiliary” field is printed first on the check. If a
personal check is read, the “Transit” data will be sent to the PC first (since there isn’t an
“Auxiliary” field) followed by the “On-Us” data and “Amount” (if present).
6. Options section
The options section of the MICR Setting window consists of several check boxes and radio
buttons used primarily for configuring the non-data features of MICR reader. A check in
the check box (square box) or a dot in the radio button (circle) enables the specific option;
leaving them blank disables the option. The options which have radio buttons are mutually
exclusive – you can only select one of them. Depending on which radio button is selected,
only one of the two check boxes below the radio buttons for “Hold at entry” or “Hold at exit”
may be available. If unavailable, the check box will be grayed-out when the radio button
option is selected.
Enable MICR
Enables or disables the MICR reader. Disabling will prevent the motor from pulling the
check through the reader, thus preventing reading the check.
Enable CMC-7
Check to select the CMC-7 font.
Enable Beep
If enabled, keyboard issues a short audio beep after reading a check.
Discard data after space at On-US field
On personal checks, the “On-Us” field contains the account number and check number.
There is typically a space between these numbers. Checking this box will effectively
prevent the check number data from being sent to the PC.
