Rank A: Reader/writer hard error; inspection and repair are required.
Rank B: Device cleaning and card reissuing requiring operator. Depending on the frequency
of the error, it may be necessary to inspect and repair the reader/writer.
Rank C: Minor error or errors that can be easily recovered from that do not occur except
when debugging software. If these repeatedly occur, it may be necessary to inspect
and repair the reader/writer.
These ranks have been established based upon their potential to occur under
normal operating conditions.
