6. Select 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
7. With the LED on, swipe a card. The data on the screen will show Track 1 beginning with
“%” and ending with “?”. Track 2 begins with “;” and ends with “?”. Track 3 begins
with “+” (normal) or "!" (CDL) and ends with “?”. The following is an example:
%B123^Smith/Joann^9812101000?;112222333333444444444?<0x0D>
If a track cannot be read, an E will appear in place of the track data; for example, if
Track 2 is bad and Tracks 1 and 3 are good, the display will be similar to the following:
%11111111111111111111?;E?+3333333333333333333?<0x0D>
If Tracks 1 and 3 are bad and Track 2 is good, the display will be similar to the following:
%E?;22222222222222222222?+E?<0x0D>
8. If the data on the screen is not numeric or alphanumeric similar to the above, check the
communications rate. If the alphanumeric characters are similar to the above, the unit is
ready for operation.
