USB Keyboard (KB) Emulation, non-encrypting magnetic stripe card reader

These readers are compact magnetic stripe card readers with a single read head that conforms to ISO standards and are bi-directional. They are compatible with any device with a USB interface. The reader emulates a USB Human Interface Device (HID) United States keyboard or optionally all international keyboards using ALT ASCII code keypad key combinations or customizable key maps. This allows host applications designed to acquire card data from keyboard input to seamlessly acquire the card data from the USB swipe reader.

SureSwipe USB Keyboard (KB) Emulation, non-encrypting magnetic stripe card reader

The USB KB SureSwipe is a card reader with two magnetic heads. SureSwipe reader was designed specifically to read any magnetic stripe card regardless of which way the magnetic stripe is facing when swiped. SureSwipe's dual heads provide convenience for the user by eliminating the confusion when swiping a card.

USB (HID) Human Interface Device, non-encrypting magnetic stripe card reader

  • These swipe readers are compact magnetic stripe card readers with a single read head that conform to ISO standards and are bi-directional. The readers are compatible with any device with a host USB interface. Unlike HID keyboard emulation readers, they do not use keyboard emulation and behave like a vendor-defined HID device, so that a direct communication path can be established between the Host application and the device without interference such as keystrokes from other HID devices.

RS-232 Port Powered, non-encrypting magnetic stripe card reader

These readers are compact magnetic stripe card reader which conforms to ISO/ANSI standards and are bi-directional. They are compatible with the PC series of personal computers or any device with a serial RS-232 interface. Since the input voltage is supplied by a relatively low source of power, the swipe reader depends on its input capacitor to maintain proper charge during all operations.
