ISO3 accepts up to 104 numeric characters from 0 to 9 as well as the ASCII characters between 48
and 62.
Coercivity defines the magnetic encoder at high or low coercivity. An encoded magnetic stripe at
high coercivity is more resistant to exterior disturbances than an encoded magnetic stripe at low
coercivity.
Direct Encoding allows the magnetic stripes to be directly encoded using this window.
Enable Macro processing allows magnetic stripe cards to be encoded from Windows applications.
A text field delimited by the characters “ |” and “|” (or other characters may be defined by the user)
will be interpreted as an encoding command by the driver.
4. Cleaning of magnetic encoder
The head of the magnetic encoder requires regular maintenance in order to ensure the integrity of
the encoded data on the cards.
The cleaning of the magnetic encoder is carried out by running an auto – cleaning sequence with
the pre-saturated cleaning cards (see Chapter 3 of this manual for more detailed information).
The repeated passage of the cleaning card within the printer cleans the card transport rollers, the
cleaning roller and the print head as well as the read/write head of the magnetic encoder.
If, between two printer cleaning sessions (all of the 500 cards inserted), the read/write process has
failed with more than one card, it is recommended to launch a printer cleaning sequence manually
(see Chapter 3 of this manual for the relevant procedure).
