Card Encode Type definition:
Value
Encode Type
Description
0
ISO/ABA
ISO/ABA encode format
1
AAMVA
AAMVA encode format
2
CADL
CADL encode format. Note that some versions of this reader
can only read track 2 for this format. They can not read tracks 1
and 3. However, this format is obsolete. There should no
longer be any cards in circulation that use this format. California
is now using the AAMVA format.
3
Blank
The card is blank
4
Other
The card has a non-standard encode format. For example,
ISO/ABA track 1 format on track 2.
5
Undetermined
The card encode type could not be determined because no
tracks could be decoded.
6
None
No decode has occurred. This type occurs if no magnetic stripe
data has been acquired since the data has been cleared or
since the device was powered on.

JIS Type 2
JIS X 6302 Type 2 encode format

GET TRACK DECODE DATA COMMAND
Command ID: 82 (Hex)
Description:
This command is used to get decoded information related to a magnetic stripe read for a single
track. This command always returns data from the most current magnetic stripe data acquisition.
This command is used to get decode status, card encode type and decoded card data for a given
track. The track of decoded data starts with a start sentinel and ends with an end sentinel and is
converted to ASCII format. The ASCII representation of the start and end sentinels vary
depending on the encode format.
