Pic.120 Magnetic Stripe Encoding - idp Smart Series User Manual

test and eject the card. But if not, encoding test will be done only by one card. At that time, if there is no
card in the printer, the printer bring a card into the printer from input hopper and repeat the encoding test
on the card, and if there is a card in the printer, the encoding test is performed on the card repeatedly.
"Card Holding" is activated when "Include Card In/Out" is ticked. When "Card Holding" is ticked and the
repeat number is set, the printer repeats the encoding test as many times as the number of set in the
"Card Holding" without ejection. When it is completed, the printer ejects the card and brings a new card
into the printer and starts testing.
In the Setting, "Retry" is to retry the encoding test when the error occurred. "Prompt on Error" is to
display Pop up Message when the error occurred. If not, Error number will be counted without message.
The number of error is displayed at Error section.
4.2.5. Encoding
Magnetic: Magnet Stripe Encoding
"Read" is to read and display the data from magnetic stripe card. It is composed of "Do Read"
and "Read All Buffer" and runs "Do Read" and "Read All Buffer" sequentially.
"Do Read" is to read the data from magnetic stripe card and store the data in the buffer.
"Read All Buffer" is to transmit the date stored in the buffer to PC. If the track number is ticked,
the data of the ticked track is only transmitted to PC.
"Write" is to write the data to the magnetic stripe. It is composed of "Write All Buffer" and "Do
Write" and runs "Write All Buffer" and "Do Write" sequentially.
"Write All Buffer" is to transmit the data to the buffer.
"Do Write" is to write the data stored in the buffer to the magnetic stripe of card. You can
choose the magnetic foil type (LoCo or HiCo) and the track of magnetic stripe. "Random Fill" is
to create a random magnetic encoding data for testing.
Batch process repeats the following steps sequentially, Card "IN"  Move "Mag"  Magnetic
"Random Fill"  Magnetic "Write"  Magnetic "Read"  Card "OUT".
IC(PC/SC) : Contact Smartcard Encoding
In SMART-30 printer, a contact smartcard encoder can be installed and SMART-50 printer
supports the contact smartcard encoder in the printer inside and the SIM encoder on the right of
front side. "IC(PC/SC)" is to test a contact smartcard and SIM encoding.
"Batch" is applied only to the contact smartcard encoding because SIM encoder is installed
outside and can't move a card automatically.
"ICH Contact" is to bring the encoder head into contact with the IC chip of smartcard physically.
