Versatile MagStripe Reader
VersaKey's integrated MagStripe reader delivers the MagStripe data in the format needed. If the host computer's application software is expecting the MagStripe data in a particular order and format, the reader's output can be confi gured to output a simulated keyboard-entered data stream by rearranging data blocks, adding terminating characters and special preamble and/or postamble character strings to the decoded card data.

VersaKey is designed to provide the reliability needed for usage in repetitive and high volume operation. The unit is proven to endure more than 10 million key operations and 1 million swipes. Standard warranty of 3 years provides confi dence that the unit is built to last.
Intelligent Interface Options
VersaKey is available with a USB or PS/2 interface depending on the user's needs. For convenience, the USB version also comes with two additional USB Hub connections. Both USB and PS/2 keyboard versions have only one communication cable. The keyboard data and the MagStripe data are output from the one cable. The MagStripe data transmitted through the keyboard cable and it appears to originate directly from the keyboard.
