9.13 Property 0x31 - Mask Other Cards (MSR Only)

0x31
Property ID:
Property Type: Byte
Length: 1 byte
Get Property: Yes
Set Property: Yes
Default Value: 0x00 (Don't Mask Other cards)
This property designates whether cards which do not decode as either ISO/ABA (Financial) or AAMVA
(Driver License) format should be sent with their data masked or unmasked. The default value (0x00) is
to send the data unmasked. If this property is set to 0x01, the device sends the track(s) to the host using
a "0" for each byte of track data the device reads from the card.
If a card is encoded according to ISO/ABA rules (Track 1 in 7 bit format, Tracks 2 and Track 3 in 5 bit
format), and Track 1 does not begin with the character 'B', the device always sends the Track 1 Masked
Data value unmasked, regardless of the value of this property. See Appendix E for details.
This property is stored in non-volatile memory, so it persists when the device is power cycled. When this
property is changed, the device must be reset (see Command 0x02 - Reset Device) or powered off for at
least 30 seconds, then powered on, before the changes will take effect.
