If only Track 2 is available:
If Track 1 and Track 2 are not in financial data format or cannot be decoded,
the reader will revert back to standard mode.
This property is stored in non-volatile memory, so it will persist when the unit
is power cycled. When this property is changed, the unit must be reset (see
Command Number 2) or power cycled to have these changes take effect.
Rules used for determining that a card is in financial data format:
• PAN length should be between 13 and 19
• Name length should be between 0 and 26 characters for Track 1
• Only 2 field separators (‘^’) for Track 1
• Only 1 field separator (‘=’) for Track 2
• Format code shall be the character ‘B’ for Track 1
