intended for use with credit authoriza-
tion terminals, point-of-sale terminals,
portable terminals, personal comput-
ers and banking terminals.

used with IBM XT, AT and PS/2
computers, entering data as if it were
being generated through the key-
board. No software modification, nor
programming of input/output devices,
nor additional power supply are

line card reader which communicates
with any computer via an RS232
interface. The 1210/1220R requires
+12V DC from either an external power
supply or the internal power of your
computer or terminal.
