Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR)This section describes how to set up and use the snap-on MSR with the MC75. The M SR snaps on to the bottom
of the MC75 and removes easily when not in use.
When attached to the MC75, the MSR allows the MC75 to capture data from magnetic stripe car ds. To download
MSR data capture software, visit the Motorola web site at http://www.symbol.com/support.
With the MSR attach, the MC75 can still be charged by placing the MC75 with MSR into a cradle or connecting to a
charging cable.
Attaching and Removing the MSR
To attach, slide the MSR onto the bottom of the MC75 and secure by snapping the arms into the MC75 housing.

Using the MSR
Install an MSR enabled application onto the MC75.
To use the MSR:
1. Attach the MSR to the MC75.
2. Power on the MC75.
3. Launch the MSR application.
4. Swipe the magnetic stripe card through the MSR, with the magnetic stripe on the card facing down. Swipe the
card in either direction, from left to right or from right to left. For best results, gently press d own on the card
while swiping to ensure contact with the bottom of the reader.

cards.
