Magnetic Track Options

requires customization of the standard ISO encoding process, use the Magnetic Track Selection option to specify which track you would like to configure through the Magnetic Track Options. Although the default ISO Magnetic Track Options should be correct for almost all applications, these options can be customized if your application requires it. Please note that all options must be changed separately for each of the three individual tracks. If you would like to set these options back to the ISO standard settings once they have been changed, simply select the Default Format button for each of the separate tracks. Please refer to the following for a description of all Magnetic Track Options.

IMPORTANT! The Magnetic Track Selections are used only for configuring the way in which each of the three magnetic tracks will encode. They DO NOT designate which tracks the printer will encode (for example, if you would like to encode only Track 2). This must be done through your specific software program. Also, note that although the printer driver will remember the settings you specified for each of the three tracks, the printer driver will always default to displaying the options for Track 1 whenever the printer driver setup screen is first opened.

Use these options to customize the ISO encoded data format for each of the magnetic stripeÕs three tracks. Remember that each track must be customized independently of the other two. This means you must specify which of the three tracks to customize by selecting one of the three track options. After making the required selection, the Magnetic Track Options box displays the current set of customization options for the selected track. Note that for most applications, however, the default settings of these options should not need to be changed.

Encoded Bit Density

This option enables customization of the Bit Recording Density (Bits per Inch) used to encode the magnetic data on the currently selected track.

The default ISO Standard selections for this option are:

Track 1	-	210 BPI
Track 2	-	75 BPI
Track 3	-	210 BPI
