7. Interface specification

This card reader compatible with USB specification revision 1.1 and Human Interface Device (HID) class

specification version 1.1. The reader communicates to the host as Human Interface Device (HID) keyboard.

Microsoft Windows XP Home/Professional Edition operating system has a standard USB HID keyboard device

driver.

This card reader is a low speed USB device.

Data is transmitted as keyboard data after inserting a card and ejecting a card from a card reader.

In case of reading error occurs during a card insertion, reading is tried again during a card ejection.

The reader can not transmit card data to keyboard code correctly in case of following:

• Operating system other than U.S. version

• On states Caps lock key or Num lock key

• Card is read during keyboard input

8. Unit life and reliability

Magnetic head Life: 500,000 times pass

Note: The life is reliability number based on the result tested in a “clean office” environment.

Above life cycles are the numbers which are tested in a “clean office environment“.

These numbers may be shortened dependent on the actual environment.

Especially in a dusty environment*, even in the indoor application, dust or sand may shorten the

life against the mechanical parts and most of the card transport mechanisms.

In these case, warranty of the card reader may be void unless the proper protection and

countermeasures are performed by the terminal side.

(e.g. If used in dusty conditions, the life of the magnetic head will decrease from 1/3 to 1/5 of the

above values.)

*Dusty environment: Refer to ex.) IEC 68, EN30721-3-3 class 3S2 or worse.

9. Period of guarantee

If defects should occur within one year after acceptance inspection of the machine due to improper material or

workmanship, the defective parts shall be replaced or repaired, free of charge.

10. Maintenance

Because of difficulty in changing components on the P.C Board, replacement of whole unit is recommended for

service and maintenance.

11. Precautions

Please be noted that we do not guarantee proper performance of the card reader if it is used other than the

indicated specification range.

11.1. Handling

• Do not drop or give excessive shocks to this unit.

• Do not disassemble this unit.

11.2. Cautions

Card

• Be sure to use a card, which conforms for the card specification. (please refer to “5. Card specification” on

page 2)

• Store the card carefully so as not to soil, injure or deform it. In particular, deposit of solid matter on the

magnetic stripe surface may result in a trouble.

Cleaning

• Clean the magnetic head by periodically passing a cleaning card.

For example, in a clean office room, pass the cleaning card about once a week.

If the magnetic head is heavily stained, clean the head by soaking the cleaning card in alcohol properly and

pass the card. For example, in the case that the card readers are used in the environment full of dust, please

make a cleaning of the card reader with a cleaning card with alcohol everyday.

Installing

• Be sure to install on a flat surface so as to prevent any force to be applied to the card reader at the

installation.

• In the case that it is to incorporate into a machine, be sure not to touch any part of machine structures to the

flexible P.C.B.

• Especially, electric noise on this area should be avoided not cause reading error.

• Do not touch the printed circuit board with bare hand.

Note: particularly static electricity.

• When installing the card reader, avoid dusty, hot or damp place, or near magnetic field or object generating

inductive noise (printer, LED display unit, CRT, etc.).

Avoid using the unit in a dusty place or otherwise the reading accuracy may be deteriorated. Keep the unit

away from objects that generate magnetism.

It may cause read errors and may cause damage to the magnetic card data.

• Do not supply power from other outlet than connector terminal.

Pay special attention to the polarity of power source and wrong connection of connector.

• Do not use the unit in a place where it is exposed to direct sunlight or splashed by water.

• FG pin should be connected to FG at customer side in low impedance. In case that FG pin is not connected

to FG, electrostatic resisting capability will decrease.

Others

• Check the noise, static electricity, etc., with the card reader being incorporated in the equipment.

It is possible for the noise from the power supply to cause the reading errors.

The equipment which the card reader is built in should be taken measures to reduce the noise from power

supply.

• The operation guarantee temperature range is 0 °C to +60°C and humidity range is 10 % to 90 % RH. Do

not use the unit if condensation gathers on it.

We recommend you to use the card reader under the environmental condition of temperature +10 °C to

+40 °C which is the best for transferring cards and reading data.

Especially, in the condition of low temperature, provide heating system separately to warm up card reader.

• Do not give any vibration more than following conditions, when a card is in the card reader.

Conditions: 5 Hz to 50 Hz , 10 m/s2 , sweep , 0.5 oct/min (X,Y,Z direction)

• Do not give any shock more than 100 m/s2 and more than 1 time, when a card is in the card reader.

• Card operation speed should be within the specification range.

Forced stop or change of speed during the card operation may cause a read error.

Appropriate speed to maintain stable operation is 30 cm/s ～ 60 cm/s.
