Card Reading
Reading Magnetic Strips:
The Linea Tab4 has a built-in magnetic card reader. The card
reader incorporates a (3) track magnetic read head requiring a single
swipe to read field data from all three tracks.
The magnetic read head faces up towards the top of the cradle.
When placing the card into the reader, the magnetic strip must be facing
up as shown in the figure below. Keep the edge of the card flat on the
inner base of the reader to ensure that the magnetic strip passes over
the read head evenly.

User Notes:
To use the magnetic card reader feature, special software must
be used to read and process the card information.
