POS-X USB-MSR Configuration
In order to work with pcAmerica’s software, all MSR’s (magnetic swipe readers) need to read
from either track 2, or track 1 and track 2. When swiped into notepad a credit card should look
like this (including the carriage return);
;1234567891234567=12345678912345678912?
or
%B1234567891234567^TEST CARD^12345678912345678912?
;1234567891234567=12345678912345678912?
If when swiped in notepad the result is different then what is shown above the MSR may require
additional configuretion to work in CRE/RPE.
Note
: POS-X MSRs using ID-Tech Encryption will only work with the payment processor
Merchant Warehouse.
