Page 5: Introduction
INTRODUCTION The IDWedgeKB is a barcode/magnetic card scanner that supports a USB connection to a host computer and functions as a USB Keyboard device or Virtual Serial Port ID ID/Card Scanner (depending on configuration). Cards are scanned and parsed into fields, and these fields are sent as keyboard strokes to the host via the USB keyboard driver or as a fixed order, comma delimited data string via the USB Virtual Com Port. -
Page 6: Hardware Overview
HARDWARE OVERVIEW The picture below shows the side view of the IDWedgeKB scanner and the location of the function button/LED indicator and RJ50 USB connector. POWER The USB cable supplies power to the Scanner. The Scanner should be connected to a standard USB 2.0 or higher port (i.e. -

Page 8: How To Scan Or Swipe License
HOW TO SCAN OR SWIPE LICENSE 2D Barcode Scanning For states like NY with 2D bar code and Military IDs, insert bar code with bar code facing slot as shown. Magnetic Stripe Swiping For states like California with a Magnetic Stripe, swipe license with magnetic stripe facing slot as shown. -
Page 9: Software Overview - Formula And Configuration Files
The formula and the default configuration files are created by the IDWedgeKB. Users then can modify these files to customize the behavior of IDWedgeKB. If a file is erased, the default version of the file will be re-created during next power cycle. Additionally, there are automatic test performed on these files during power up, to ensure the files adhere to some basic formatting rules. - Page 10 Open with Windows Explorer. The file system normally contains 6 files as seen in this screen shot: The above files control the behavior of IDWedgeKB. Confidential Page 10 8/18/2017...

Page 11: Configuration File - Config.txt
CONFIGURATION FILE – CONFIG.TXT The IDWedgeKB uses a configuration file called Config.txt to control some basic hardware parameters. If the file gets erased, it will be re-created automatically using factory default settings during next power on. If the file contains editing errors or is corrupted and cannot be opened, then a file called Problem.txt will be written to the SD card. -
Page 12: Magtrackcard
MAGTRACKCARD MagTrackCard controls the output of Magstripe cards like Student Ids, AAA cards, etc.If enabled, the Magstripe.txt formulas will be active if a magnetic card is identified. If disabled, then Magstripe.txt formulas will be disabled. MIDINITIAL The MidInitial controls the output of the Middle name filed, if set to true then only the middle initial will be output, if set to false then the whole middle name (if available) will be output. -
Page 13: Usbkeyboard
If the USBKeyboard and USBSerialPort are both True or both False, then the USB flash drive will be activated when the IDWedgeKB is plugged into a PC so the user can fix this error in the config.txt file. Note: Please visit Serial port section of manual for instructions on installing virtual usb com port drivers. -

Page 16: Magnetic.txt
The Magnetic Formula used to send fields to the host and is stored in a file on the SD card. To Access the Config.txt file, you must boot the IDWedgeKB while holding the battery button. The magnetic parsing formula will allow for two tracks to be parsed and two fields of specific lengths and specific offsets to be parsed per track for a total of 4 fields. - Page 17 If no second offset is required, then these fields are populated with zero and the unused lowercase field designators are not required For example, 1,1,6,0,0,2,1,6,0,0 q{TAB}s{TAB} Raw data can be extracted from each track by using the value 99 for the length. If you want to extract the Raw Data from tracks 1 and 2: 1,0,99,0,0,2,0,99,0,0 q{TAB}s{TAB}...

Page 19: Control Keys
CONTROL KEYS The control keys are the non-printing keyboard strokes used in between the parsed field in the formula. The examples so far have included the Tab key {TAB} and the Enter key {ENTER}. The format of the control keys is an all-capital key word surrounded by curly braces (except for Pause). Each curly brace must be paired with another (left, right) or the formula will not work. -

The formula and configuration files are created by the IDWedgeKB when it is first powered up at the factory. User modify these files to customize the behavior of IDWedgeKB. If a file is erased, the default version of the file will be re-created during next power cycle. Additionally, there are automatic test performed on these files during power up to ensure the files adhere to some basic formatting rules. - Page 21 This file was created because a problem was found in the above file, it will be deleted when the problem is cleared. To restore a default version of any file, just erase the file and reboot For more details, See IDWedgeKB user manual at www.idscanner.com...
