Note: If the front-gate option is installed, the IntelliStripe 310 Reader will be incapable of
reliably reading mag-stripe cards during the card ejection cycle. Reliable mag-stripe card
reading will only be possible during the card consumption cycle. If mag-stripe reading is
required during the card ejection cycle, then the product must be ordered without the front-gate
option.
