Using the MagStripe Slot Scanner

The MagStripe Slot Scanner options (track 1, track 2, track 3, or track 1 and 2 or 2 and 3 or Track 1/2/3) enable the WDP Reader to read credit and other magnetic- strip cards without disconnecting or disabling the bar code wand. It's a stationary scanner which reads tracks 1 and 2 of magnetically-encoded cards meeting the standards defined by ANSI x 4.13, ANSI x 4.16 1983, ISO 3554 and ISO 2894.

There are three requirements for using a MagStripe Slot Scanner:

The MagStripe Slot Scanner must be plugged into your WDP Reader's MagStripe port (next to the Wand port).

If using a dual or tipple track reader, Jumper 9 must be set to M (for MagStripe) for dual or triple track scanner instead of W (for Wand or bar code slot scanner). Single Track Magstripe reading is will work with either the W or M setting. See Appendix A, Opening the WDP Reader's Case, and Appendix B, Jumper Settings, for instructions on how to do this. You must enable the proper track using the WDP Setup Menu as described on page 15.

The MagStripe scanner can be permanently mounted to a surface using the threaded holes on the bottom. To use the MagStripe Slot Scanner, turn the card upside-down so the stripe can be read. Move the card through the scanner in a continuous swipe in the direction of the arrow.
