6-2 Contactless IC card communication: RFID
RFID read and write function is based on Type A, Type B communication method in
ISO/IEC 14443.
6-3 Magnetic stripe reading: MSR
6-3-1 General description about MSR
Suitable card for this scanner is compliant with ISO/IEC 7810, 7811-2,-6
(JISX6301, 6302-2,-6) and AAMVA specification. The reading process of magnetic
stripe is occurring at same time when the card is loading.
In this timing, the card is exposed still and the operator can touch the card. So,
the reading process might be fail if the card is pulled or pushed by operator.
It is recommended inserting card again when the reading was fail.
Note: A reading failure due to the influence of the operator's hand does not
count to the error in the reliability test.
6-3-2 Operating suggestions for MSR
The decoder performs in-depth analysis on the waveform and outputs a character
string as a result.
One of the most outstanding features of the decoding system is a capability of
detecting the defects on the signal waveform, which enables the estimation of their
true values.
If the defect is within a certain range, the erroneous character may be estimated
for the true value and reported to the host system accompanied by an alert
message for potential misread.
Actually, the supervisor DLL denotes this kind of result delivered by MSR DLL as a
read error in order to avoid misread.
