use the PIN code feature with caution as forgetting the PIN code requires a hard 
reset which will erase all data in the handheld. 

Tip - Appending Notes to Swipe Data via MemoPad 

After a license has been swiped, it is possible to add one or more comments that will 
be uploaded to one or more columns in the Excel spread sheet.  This is a great way 
for CardVisor III & IV clients to mark a customer as a VIP or Banned individual.  It is 
also an easy way to record additional fields such as email addresses or phone 
numbers.  Whenever the Excel import wizard sees the ^ character, it puts the 
following data into the next column of the spreadsheet.  At the end of each parsed 
string (CardVisor Category Memo), there is the carat character.  Just tap the stylus at 

the end of the line and start making notes.  Notes can be made using the keyboard 
or via Graffiti (see Graffiti chart in this manual).

Adding data to a Memo entry using 
the ‘Keyboard’ instead of Graffiti. 

 

 

Additional columns can be added to the spreadsheet by appending additional ^ 
characters.  See the Graffiti chart on how to write this character.  Note: It is not 
necessary to have a carat symbol as the last character in the memo.  Excel will put 
the last field in the proper column with or without a carat symbol at the end.
