Introduction
EzWriter is a personal computer peripheral device for reading and writing magnetic stripe
card data. WorkShop is the companion software product, which provides operation of
EzWriter through a Personal Computer. The MagStripe cards must meet the ISO 7811
standards for an ID1 card (typical credit card). Cards are manually swiped through the
slot to perform a reading and/or writing operation. Data can be written and read verified
with one swipe. The Reader/Writer supports magnetic stripe track formats defined either
by an established industry standard or by a user (customer defined) data format. All
formats use F/2F data bit encoding (writing) and either 210 or 75 bits per inch (BPI) data
densities. The EzWriter can read and write both High coercivity and Low coercivity (Hi-
Co & Lo-Co) magnetic stripes.
The enclosure is a die cast metal housing that provides weight and stability for excellent
performance. There are two communication interfaces, either RS232 or USB, available
through an attached six-foot cable. A separate power adaptor is required to supply the
power needed for writing cards.
There are three sections to this document:
The first section provides Quick Start information covering EzWriter installation and
installation of the WorkShop Utility Application software. WorkShop operates with
both RS232 unit and USB units and provides easy to use commands for performing all read
and write functions. A simple example of WorkShop operation is given in this
section. The example performs the two most basic operations, writing and then reading on
a Lo-Co or Hi-Co magnetic stripe card.
The second section provides operation details for all the WorkShop functions.
The third section is the Technical Guide for the Reader/Writer. This section provides the
product specification, commands, and related information.
The Magnetic Stripe Reader & Writer is RoHS compliant.
