This makes the reader, as a data source, completely transparent to the host’s application software. In other words, if it is expecting data from the keyboard, that same data can be entered via the MiniMag and make no difference to the host.

There are up to three tracks of encoded data on a magnetic stripe. This option selects the tracks that will be read and decoded. The MiniMag can be set to either send or not send, to invoke the Start/End sentinel, and to send either the Track 2 account number Syntax: /e/d/fp<space>b1<ENTER>where...

Formulas By separating the input data record into smaller blocks (called “fields”), The set of instructions programmed into the MiniMag to edit data is each block can be edited individually. Additional fields can also be referred to as the data editing “formula.” More than one formula added to the record, allowing specific functions, such as carriage (to a maximum of four) can be resident in the reader at one time.
