2. If the rails are designed without using an ID TECH rail, the minimum slot width should be 0.040 inches wide,
at a minimum of 0.5 inches on both sides of the magnetic head's gap. There must also be a smooth transition
leading up to the 0.040-inch-wide area of the slot both entering and exiting the magnetic head.
3. When designing insert style readers, make sure the magnetic media on cards can be inserted completely, past
the read head, so the reader registers the stop sentinel on the magnetic stripe.
