When minimizing key reports, the minimum number of key reports is sent to
represent each character. When the ASCII-to-keypress conversion type property
is set to ACTIVE KEYMAP, this consists of one key report per character (key
down) if not sending the same key usage ID that was sent in the last key report
sent or two key reports per character (one for the key down and one for the key
up) when sending the same same key usage ID that was sent in the last key report
sent. When the ASCII-to-keypress conversion type property is set to ALT ASCII
code, this consists of four key reports per character (Alt and first digit down,
second digit down, third digit down, Alt and third digit up). This mode is up to
two times faster, but it may not work with all applications.
LC 0 – Send card data as upper case
1 – Send card data as lower case
Note that the state of the Caps Lock key on the host keyboard has no affect on
what case the card data is transmitted in unless the ICL bit in this property is set
to 1.
Er 00 – Don’t send any card data if error – NOT CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED
01 – Don’t send track data if error
11 – Send ‘E’ for each track error
This property is stored in non-volatile memory, so it will persist when the unit is
power cycled. When this property is changed, the unit must be reset (see
Command Number 2) or power cycled to have these changes take effect.
MP Flags Property
Property ID: 0x15
Property Type: Byte
Length: 1 byte
Get Property: Yes
Set Property: Yes
Default Value: 0x00
Description: This property is defined as follows:
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 S
S 0 – MagnePrint Data will NOT be sent
1 – MagnePrint Data will be sent.
This property is used to designate whether or not the MagnePrint data is sent as part of
the swipe data when
in Security Level 2 (MagnePrint data is always transmitted in other
Security Levels). Setting S to 1 causes the MagnePrint Status and Unencrypted
MagnePrint Data to be sent with each swipe. Setting S to 0 causes these fields to be
omitted from the data. When the fields are omitted, the Programmable Field Separator
that precedes each of these fields will also be omitted.
