Motorized Card Reader
Consumers insert their card into the motorized card reader slot to begin the
transaction. A blinking lead-through indicator light surrounds the slot to help
guide the consumer.
The motorized card reader reads and writes magnetic stripe cards and memory
chip cards (smart or memory cards compliant with ISO 7816) . The card reader
reads and writes tracks 1, 2, and 3 (or any combination of tracks 1, 2, and 3)
of magnetic stripe cards. To minimize errors, the card is held in the transport
and the card reader can read tracks with errors again, for corrections (when it is
necessary). A gate prevents cards without chips or cards without track 2 from
entering the card reader/writer. The gate also prevents incorrect card insertion.
The card reader has an open card capture box to hold retained cards. The card
capture box holds all cards that are not returned to consumers. A card may be
retained for the following reasons:
• The network commands the system to retain the card.
• The card cannot physically be returned.
• The consumer fails to take the card within the time allowed after the
transaction session ended.
• A power failure occurs while the card is in the card reader, and the option to
return the card during power failure is not enabled.
