ISLAND CARD READER

DESCRIPTION

The GASBOY Island Card Reader (ICR) is a rugged, well-designed data entry terminal that gives
users access to self-service gas pumps. It can also be used as a gate controller, allowing users
to access other station equipment such as an oil vending machine, car wash, gate opener, etc.
The unit is controlled by a microprocessor and communicates to the GASBOY site controller via
the RS-485 loop.

The unit is available with either an ABA Track 1 and 2 magnetic stripe card reader or an optical
reader. A 20 character liquid crystal display is used to guide the user through the transaction.
The display is backlit so that it can be read at night. A membrane keypad incorporates easy-to-
read legends and provides the user with the means to input data to the system. An optional
disable pumps switch can be added to the unit to stop fueling at the site in case of an emergency.

The post is used for mounting the island card reader to the island. Three different types of posts
are available with the island card reader:

Blank post (standard)

Receipt printer post
