The SCANTEAM® 6980 product is a dual track Magnetic Stripe Card Reader (MSR) designed to attach to devices with an RS-232 serial interface port. All magnetic stripe decoding electronics are contained in the compact ST6980 product enclosure.
The ST6980 is a bi-directional card reader; it can read cards swiped in either direction. A beeper indicates a good read or bad read to the operator. The ST6980 is powered by an external power pack device. Other versions are available which accept input power through the DB-9 host connector.
The ST6980 is easily attached to host devices in two simple steps. First, attach the ST6980's DB-9 interface connector to the host device RS-232 port, securing the connector in place using the finger grip retaining screws. (For certain applications, the use of commercially available DB-25 to DB-9 and gender changer adapter plugs may be required.) Second, attach the source of external power to the ST6980. This may be the external 5VDC power pack, or the host system's +5VDC power supplied on a 2.1mm barrel connector.
The ST6980 offers a fast, easy and accurate method for entering data contained on a magnetic stripe into a PC system. Retail POS credit and debit account number entry, bank teller automation, driver's license ID verification, membership ID verification, access control, work in process data entry, labor and job tracking, and tool and equipment sign out are just a few of the applications for the ST6980.
