OPERATION
The MiniMag reader is easy to operate. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Make sure the reader is properly cabled and is receiving sufficient
power. (See Section 5, Troubleshooting, if there is a cabling or power
problem.)
2. To read a card, slide the card, in either direction, through the reader
slot, with the magnetic stripe facing the magnetic head (LED side).
3. While swiping the card through the reader, the LED will go off.
4. Once the entire magnetic stripe has been read, the LED indicator
will light up as green to signal a “good read.” If a good read is not
obtained, the LED indicator will light up as red.
5. A beep will also sound to indicate a good read on each track. If all
three tracks have been read successfully, the reader will beep three
times.
