OPERATION GUIDE
MAGNETIC STRIPE READER
For magnetic stripe card reading, be sure to insert the card to the bottom
with magnetic stripe facing the mark aside the slot. The movement of the card
can be either inserting the card from the top surface then sliding the card down
out of the slot, or sliding the card upward from the lower side of the slot till it
reaches the top end as long as the card is a standard one. A non-standard card
recorded without complete degaussing prior to recovery may accept only one
direction in card reading.
The magnetic stripe reader in KP-100 / KP-110, KB-4000 or SD-100 /
SD-110 of PS2 interface connects to the host through KB port and therefore
requires no driver installation to get it working. The magnetic stripe reader in
KP-100U/ KP-110U/ SD-100 / SD-110 of USB interface connects to the host
through USB port working as a USB KB and therefore also requires no driver
installation except setting up the USB keyboard to be enabled in system
BIOS CMOS setup. This setup is particularly important for application of the
USB KB device to operate under DOS environment. Please note that the KP-
100U/KP-110U delivered particularly for DOS environment application is
different from that for Windows environment by internal jumper setting or
circuitry and therefore they are not freely interchangeable for end users.
SMART CARD READER
Card Insertion
For smart card reading, please insert the end of the smart chip first and
have the chip facing the mark aside the smart card reader slot.
Applicable Smart Card Type
The smart card reader can be used for both asynchronous and
synchronous type smart cards. For asynchronous type smart card, it reads the
card with T = 0 and T = 1 protocols up to 340 Kbps of EMV and ISO modes.
For synchronous type smart card, coverage includes: 2-wire (SLE4432/42), 3-
wire (SLE4418/28) etc.

PROGRAMMABLE KEYPAD (not for SD-100/SD-110)
Programmable Keys
The programmable keys can deliver to the host system the string of
keyboard input as programmed. Please note that it is also possible to use
combination keys if programmed to.
