HP MSR Configuration Utility
In order to work with pcAmerica’s software, all MSR’s (magnetic swipe readers) need to read from track 2
only. When swiped into notepad a credit card should look like this (including the carriage return);
;1234567891234567=12345678912345678912?
If when swiped in notepad the swipe looks like this;
%B1234567891234567^TEST CARD^12345678912345678912?
;1234567891234567=12345678912345678912?
It is reading from tracks 1 and 2, and the MSR needs to be configured to work with our software.
To configure the HP MSR to read only from Track 2 simply
install the configuration software (sp32810.exe).
The configuration software can be downloaded at:

The configuration software must be extracted before use.
