Adjusting the Hi-Co Voltage Offset

Step Procedure
1 Identify the Magnetic Encoder voltage required by the cards. (Note: The
required encoder voltage for the cards will need to be known in order to
properly set the Encoder Voltage Offset value. This information should be
available through the card manufacturer or reseller).
2 Use the following equation to identify the proper Mag Hi-Co Voltage Offset
value
((((36500/(((<Desired Voltage>+4.6)/1.23)-1))-2670)/39.0625) – 40)X-1

For example:
Required Encoder Voltage = 9vdc
((((36500/(((9+4.6)/1.23)-1))-2670)/39.0625) – 40)X-1 = 15

3 Change the Mag Hi-Co Voltage Offset value.

4 Use the Diagnostic Utility to run a Magnetic Self test and verify encoded
quality.
