Application
Sophisticated
colour printers and copiers have become so good that it is sometimes
difficult to tell the difference between an original and a copy of a
document. This has substantially increased the risk of fraud by high quality
copies of cheques being mistaken for the original. Cheques in UK circulation have a line of magnetic ink which
contains the cheque number, account and sort code information. It is this
magnetic ink that Access Keyboards MICR readers recognise and read using a
magnetic read head. Copy documents do not have the magnetic ink properties
and are detected immediately.
Versions of the
8300s are available which support the
direct connection to POS terminal I/O ports, integrated bar coded document
reading, numerous keyboard wedge interfaces, hand held scanner decoding,
integrated magnetic stripe reader, and auxiliary RS-232 I/O ports.
8300 Options
The 8300 may be ordered with options which provide an integrated triple
track mag stripe reader, a bar code scanner port, and two RS-232 ports for
future peripherals, such as PIN Pads or a Signature Capture Pad. The 8300 is
compatible with hundreds of POS and teller systems through the built in
interface/wedge controller. The 8300 typically operates from +5 volt or +12
volt power from the host device and does not require external power pack or
connector blocks.
8310 Version
The 8310 is the reduced feature set member of
the 8300 family of cheque reader products.
The 8310 contains interface support for PC COM ports for POS
applications, many PC and video terminal keyboards in a keyboard wedge mode,
as well as support for communications with many Credit Authorization
Terminals. The 8310 now has a Magnetic Stripe Reader option for a combined
Cheque Reader/MSR solution.
Please contact Access Keyboards sales to discuss how the 8300 could
work in your application.
