2.3.5 Format
The following output types or formats are supported.
BIN Binary Representation
The defined read area bit stream is sent to the Host system as 0 and 1 key
strokes the same way as how they are stored on the card (there are no
leading or trailing bits/keystrokes added).
EXAMPLE:
Data on card (4 bytes): 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000
BIN Keyboard Wedge Output: 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000
HEX Hexadecimal Representation
The defined area bit stream is sent as 0-F keystrokes to the Host system
according to the HEX representation of the bit stream.
EXAMPLE:
Data on card (4 bytes): 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000
HEX Keyboard Wedge Output: 12345678
ASCII American Standard Code for Information Interchange Representation
The defined area bit stream is sent as ASCII keystrokes to the Host system
according to the ASCII representation of the bit stream. Non-printable
characters (for example, ACK) are substituted by a period (.).
EXAMPLE:
Data on cards (4 bytes): 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000
ASCII Keyboard Wedge Output: .4Vx
BCD Binary Coded Decimal Representation
The defined area bit stream is sent as 0 and 1 keystrokes to the Host system
according to BCD representation of the bitstream.
BCD converts each byte of the bitstream to a decimal number.
Since the resulting decimal number can be in the range of 0-255, the 5x27 CK
reserves three digits for each number, a leading 0 is added.
Each decimal number digit is converted into 4 bits.
EXAMPLE:
Data on card (4 bytes): 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000
(Decimal number: 305419896)
BCD Keyboard Wedge Output: 0011 0000 0101 0100 0001 1001 1000 1001
0110
DEC Decimal Coded Representation (available with firmware 02000000 or
higher)
The defined area bit stream is sent as 0-9 keystrokes to the Host system
according to decimal representation of the bitstream.
Maximum bitstream length to be converted is 8 bytes.
EXAMPLE:
Data on card (4 bytes): 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000
DEC Keyboard Wedge Output: 305419896
