This chapter describes the procedure
for installing the 1210/1220R magnetic
stripe reader. Several RS232 param-
etersincluding baud rate, data bits,
parity, message suffix, and track
sentinelsmay be adjusted by
modifying the dip-switch settings on
the underside of the magnetic stripe
reader.
If you have not already done so, turn
off your computer to avoid any
accidental damage to the stripe reader
and computer.
Step 1: Turn off your computer
The 1210/1220R supports single or

table by yourselves. We also offer
the optional RS232 Y-cable(GC-1210-
