The OCR reader operates with a broad range of swipe speeds. To maintain data integrity, very
fast swipe speeds are ignored completely and swipe speeds slightly exceeding the maximum
allowed by the ATB420 will result in a bad read message of 30 "*" characters, a Red light indication
from the Bi-Colour LED and 3 beeps from the sounder.
A label is attached to the slot area to assist operators/agents to the swipe direction and position of
passports and other travel documents
