Using the Magnetic Encoder Voltage Offset Option

Use this option to adjust the voltage of the Magnetic Encoder.

Encoder voltage is set from the factory at a default of 7.24vdc for Hi-Co Magnetic cards
and 2.54vdc for Lo-Co Magnetic cards.

Depending on the cards that are being used, it may be necessary to adjust the encoder
voltage out of default.

See the next two procedures for instructions on adjusting the Magnetic Encoder Voltage.
(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).
