Swipe a card at a moderate rate through the card slot. A moderate rate is equivalent to
moving a card from the entrance to the exit in about 1/2 second.
When swiping a card, the magnetic stripe must be in contact with the magnetic heads.
The heads are on the side with the logo labels. The card must be held so the stripe is
down and facing toward the logo when swiped through the slot from right to left.
The card must be registered (held) to the reference surface at the bottom of the card slot.
The card must be swiped through the slot without tipping or stopping and moved with one
steady movement all the way through the slot. The operation is unidirectional; the
operation is only in the forward direction starting from the card slot’s tapered end. The
EzWriter will not function properly with a card swiped in the reverse direction.
The Message text box at the top of the WorkShop window shows “Write(1) OK!”. If three
cards were swiped, all three have the same written data and the Message text box shows
“Write(3) OK!”. End the card writing process by click the “End” button in the “Please
Swipe a Card” window.
Note:
The EzWriter has two magnetic heads; one is for writing and the other is for
reading. The Reader/Writer performs a read after write operation when writing cards.
When a card is swiped, the card passes over the write head first and then the read head.
This read after write feature is how the EzWriter determines a Write OK or a Write Error
condition.
Reading a Card (Quick Start)
When the Read button is clicked and a card is swiped through the card slot, the EzWriter
reads all tracks. When reading a card, the coercivity of the magnetic stripe has no
importance. The read operation is the same for all card coercivities.
To read the card just written, Click on the Read button and swipe the card. The Track
text boxes fill with the data read from the card tracks. Empty card tracks have no data to
be display and those text boxes are empty. Cards can be swiped and read with no limit.
The Track box data is refreshed each time a card is swiped and there is no read error. To
end the reading process, click the “End” button in the “Please Swipe a Card” window.
This concludes the Quick Start Section. The basic functions of loading the WorkShop
application, installing the EzWriter, card writing, and card reading have been
demonstrated.
The next sections are the User Manual for the WorkShop Utility. There is practical
Magnetic Stripe information in the Appendix B.
The EzWriter Technical Guide section provides the communication command language,
specifications, and other information for applications not using WorkShop.
