Specifications for magnetic stripe card readers and encoders include: A point of sale (POS) system can handle sales, manage an inventory database, run a barcode scanner, and allow the querying of inventory and sales database in a flexible way. A PC cash drawer is a point of sale (POS) system designed around a standard personal computer that uses magnetic stripe card readers and encoders.
A magnetic stripe reader writer is a device that performs both reading and writing of magnetic stripe cards. A magnetic stripe writer is used to write the encoded data in the magstripes. A magnetic stripe reader reads the data from the magstripes by analyzing the electronic signals. Typically, a magnetic stripe encoder uses a programmed algorithm.
Magnetic stripe encoders transform or encode data into a format that can be read by magnetic stripe readers. Most modern magnetic stripe card readers and encoders support the bi-directional reading of single, dual, and triple track magnetic cards. A low-coercivity magnetic stripe writer may write to only low-coercivity cards. A high-coercivity magnetic stripe writer may write to only high-coercivity cards. A magnetic stripe reader can read either type of magstripe. There are two types of magstripes: high-coercivity and low-coercivity.
The magnetic stripe, sometimes called a magstripe, is read by physical contact and swiping past a reading head. A magnetic stripe card is capable of storing data by modifying the magnetism of tiny iron-based magnetic particles on a band of magnetic material on the card. Magnetic stripe readers and magnetic stripe encoders are devices that read and encode magnetic stripe cards such as driver’s licenses, employee badges, and credit cards.
