OVERVIEW
idScan for magnetic cards reads the magnetic strip of ID documents, and extracts the
textual information stored on it into a file or the clipboard.
When reading magnetic strips, idScan starts analyzing the data on the magnetic strip
as soon as the document is swiped, and the data is saved in a text file. In magnetic
reading mode, idScan offers three naming conventions to the saved text data:
• Fixed file name
• Ascending numerator name (i.e. Card-0.txt, Card-1.txt, Card-2.txt…)
• Naming according to the customer name or ID Number, as extracted from the
ID card.
Full automation of the process allows the user to chain-feed documents to the
MagShell reader while processing takes place in the background.
The MagShell readers are capable of reading any AAMVA and ISO compliant Driver
License with a magnetic strip.
