Island Card Reader Configuration
7 – Island Card Reader Configuration
The Island Card Reader (ICR) obtains the required information from the card and from keypad
input, sends it to the Site Controller to be processed, and displays information for the
customer.
Use the disk-based configuration program READER to configure the ICR and receipt printer
programs and the ICR parameters. From the READER main menu choose submenu 1 to
configure the ICR program, submenu 2 to configure the printer program, or submenu 3 to
configure the ICR parameters.
Note: Manual entry of codes cannot be more than 16 digits.
Entering Alpha Characters
The alpha-shift key is used to enter a letter on the ICR keypad. This feature must be enabled by
a financial network to function. See your specific Credit and Debit manual for instructions if
you are required to enter a letter on the keypad.
ICR Program
Use submenu 1 of the READER program to configure the ICR program. The Site Controller
programs the ICR according to the program configured by this submenu. The ICR program
determines, in part, how the ICR handles a transaction.
There are 21 possible step types in the ICR program; you do not need to include all 21, and
you do not need to enter them in order. For any line that currently is not centered, if the
sequence @C is included on a line, the text for the line is centered on the display.
