Special Keys - Sp1, Sp2, and Sp3

There are some additional measures that can be taken to make it more difficult for unauthorized users to

reproduce passwords, such as, by adding additional keystroke characters to the card information that is

difficult to reproduce, while configuring the data. These additional characters are labeled as Sp1, Sp2,

and Sp3 on the delimiters Virtual Keyboard. The Sp1, Sp2, and Sp3 keys are used only for keystroking

environments to send unprintable characters to a specified application.

Special keys don’t function for pcProx and pcProx Plus readers with extended feature.

Extended Tab

This tab allows manipulation of all fields. For pcProx & pcProx Plus readers with extended feature, 31

separator keystrokes can precede its displayed data. Typically the last field will not be displayed, but will

instead have separators to terminate or signal the end of card data.

The reader processes and displays the fields in the order of the green (enabled) buttons from top to

bottom. The Blue button is the selected field; the Red buttons are the disabled fields. Each field may or

may not have separator keystrokes. Each field may or may not be enabled to display card data. Each

field is defined as a starting bit and number of bits from the 256 bit of card data.

There are popular 64, 75, and 200 bit modes already predefined for you. These set the starting bit and

number of bits and display type (hex or decimal) for each field. The displayed number can have fixed

length (i.e. padded with zeros).
