1|INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the CF Mag Stripe Reader Card 4E. The
card reads data from one, two, or three track magnetic stripes on
ID cards, driver’s licenses, royalty cards or credit/debit cards into a
Windows Mobile, XP or Vista based computer. It’s the perfect
solution for mobile Point of Sale applications, whether you want
to eliminate long lines inside a department store or need to
process credit cards at outdoor events.
The CF Mag Stripe Reader Card is great to combine with a cellular or wireless
network to perform credit card authorizations, manage inventory and prices, and
look up credit balances and other account information on the fly. For security
applications, set up a mobile authentication system that wirelessly accesses database
records for identity verification.
The CF Mag Stripe Reader Card can also be used with voter registration cards, health
cards, and other identity documents.
Sleekly designed with no cables or batteries, the CF Mag Stripe Reader Card works in the
CompactFlash or PC Card slot of compatible mobile computers.
ABOUT THE SOFTWARE
SocketScan™ keyboard wedge software feeds swiped data directly into any
open program, as if the data were manually typed — no custom programming
is required.
