ICI Swipe Card Reader Option (PCM2 OPT7B)
ICI Swipe Card Reader
Option Parts List
The bar code reader provides a convenient means of entering a user ID number.
This card reader is a "swipe" reader in that it requires the user to pass a card with
a bar code on it through the card guide. The bar code reader will read bar codes
over the speed range of 3-30 inches per second (ips) at the recommended density
of the encoded bar. A non-read is indicated by illuminating both the red and
green LEDs. A good read is indicated by illuminating the green LED. The
reader will read cards in either direction. The reader is mounted in the lower
cutout of the console panel's display panel beneath the CRT.
The reader is capable of reading either visible bar codes or bar codes hidden
behind a special black filter. The reader is optimized to read bar codes whose
narrow bar is greater than 0.013 inches. However, bar codes with a narrow bar
width of 0.010 inches can be read with some slight deterioration of the high speed
scanning rate. The recommended distance from the edge of the card to the center
of the bar code strip is 3i8" (0.375"). The recommended width of the bar code
strip is li2" (0.50").
The ICI Swipe Bar Code Reader is a low cost unit capable of reading only the
same codes as does the ICI Insert Bar Code Reader.
