Magnetic Encoding Retries
See Canceling a Ticket on page 49.
Encoding Examples
~ Encodes the ticket, performs read-after-write, and cuts the ticket. The
ticket stops after the cutter (where the after cutter sensor still can see the
ticket). Here it waits for print data and !P command before proceeding to
be printed and ejected to the customer
Apart from print data and !P, only the following commands are allowed.
!L3, !L4, and !L5.
!L5 "Eject document into waste bin" will throw away the ticket from the
waiting position into the waste bin without erasing the data to avoid that
the ticket material in the upper track is being pushed out.
(minus sign) Disables encoding on magnetic retries. If magnetic retries
occur it is almost certain that it is the read-after-write fails due to
interference. If encoding is disabled on the retry, the interference level is
drastically reduced and the possibility of a successful reading increases.
This is especially useful for HiCo tickets.
Example • Encoding two tracks on a HiCo ticket:
!C«»
!M 1234567890123456789012345678901234567 |«»
!P«»
!C«»
!J ON TRACK 1 YOU CAN ENCODE UP TO 79 ASCII
ALPHANUMERICAL CHARACTERS AND DIGITS«»
F T N 50 140 1 1 1 3 "HiCo Test" «»
!P«»
Note • The | character in the string makes the ticket return to active position after encoding
this track
