CARD ENCODE TYPE

This one-byte value indicates the type of encoding that was found on the card. The following table defines the possible values.

Value

Encode Type

Description

0

ISO/ABA

ISO/ABA encode format

1

AAMVA

AAMVA encode format

2

reserved

 

3

Blank

The card is blank.

4

Other

The card has a non-standard encode format. For example,

 

 

ISO/ABA track 1 format on track 2.

5

Undetermined

The card encode type could not be determined because no

 

 

tracks could be decoded.

6

None

No decode has occurred. This type occurs if no magnetic stripe

 

 

data has been acquired since the data has been cleared or

 

 

since the device was powered on. This device only sends an

 

 

Input report when a card has been swiped so this value will

 

 

never occur.

TRACK DATA

If decodable track data exits for a given track, it is located in the track data field that corresponds to the track number. The length of each track data field is fixed at 110 bytes, but the length of valid data in each field is determined by the track data length field that corresponds to the track number. Track data located in positions greater that the track data length field indicates are undefined and should be ignored. The HID specification requires that reports be fixed in size, but the number of bytes encoded on a card may vary. Therefore, the Input Report always contains the maximum amount of bytes that can be encoded on the card and the number of valid bytes in each track is indicated by the track data length field. The track data is decoded and converted to ASCII. The track data includes all data starting with the start sentinel and ending with the end sentinel.

TRACK 1 DATA

This field contains the decoded track data for track 1.

TRACK 2 DATA

This field contains the decoded track data for track 2.

TRACK 3 DATA

This field contains the decoded track data for track 3.
