Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR)
The Linea Pro 7 has a built-in magnetic stripe reader. The MSR incorporates a 3-track, bi-directional,
encryption-capable magnetic read head. A single swipe can read field data from all three tracks.
The MSR will function as an unencrypted MSR until an encryption key is injected into the MSR
head by a designated Infinite Peripherals key injection facility. Please contact an Infinite Peripherals
account representative for more information.
To Use the Magnetic Stripe Reader:
1. Activate the Linea Pro 7 by pressing either Scan Button.
2. Insert the card into either end of the reader, then swipe the card through toward the other end of
the reader.

The magnetic stripe must face the same direction as the screen of the iOS device.
Keep the edge of the card flat on the inner edge of the reader to ensure that the magnetic stripe
passes over the read head evenly.
