SECTION 1. FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS

The USB (Universal Serial Bus) HID (Human Interface Device) IntelliHead Swipe Reader is a compact magnetic stripe card reader that conforms to ISO standards. The Reader is compatible with any device with a USB host interface. A card is read by sliding it past the head either forward or backward.

The Reader conforms to the USB HID Class specification Version 1.1. This allows host applications designed for most versions of Windows to easily communicate to the device using standard Windows API calls that communicate to the device through the HID driver that comes with Windows.

Unlike HID keyboard emulation readers, this device does not use keyboard emulation. It behaves like a vendor-defined HID device so that a direct communication path can be established between the Host application and the device without interference such as keystrokes from other HID devices. (For information on the USB KB Emulation IntelliHead, refer to Technical Manual 99875321.)

FEATURES

Major features of the USB IntelliHead are as follows:

• Powered through the USB – no external power supply required

• Hardware Compatible with PC or any computer or terminal with a USB interface

• Bi-directional card reading

• Reads encoded data that meets ANSI/ISO/AAMVA/JIS Type 2 standards and others such

as ISO track 1 format on track 2 or 3

• Reads up to three tracks of card data

• Compatible with USB specification Revision 1.1

• Compatible with HID specification Version 1.1

• Can use standard Windows HID driver for communications. No third part device driver

is required.

• Programmable USB serial number descriptor

• Programmable USB Interrupt In Endpoint polling interval

• Non-volatile memory for configuration storage

• Ability to convert to Keyboard Emulation mode of operation

SECTION 2. INSTALLATION

This section describes the cable connection, the Windows Plug and Play Setup, and the physical mounting of the unit.

USB CONNECTION

Since the USB IntelliHead is supplied as an OEM product, the installation and system integration will be unique for each application. The reader module must be attached to an appropriate connector which, in turn, connects to the USB port or hub. The pin numbers for the 5-pin connector are shown in Figure 2-1.

Pin numbers and signal descriptions for the cable shown in the illustration are listed in Table 2-1. The connector is a Molex 52021-0500; one of the recommended mating connectors is Molex 53048-0510.

1 VBUS Red 2 - Data White 3 +Data Green 4 Ground Black 5 Head Case Brown

WINDOWS PLUG AND PLAY SETUP

On hosts with the Windows operating system, the first time the device is plugged into a specific USB port, Windows will pop up a dialog box, which will guide you through the process of installing a device driver for the device. After this process is completed once, Windows will no longer request this process as long as the device is plugged into the same USB port. The device driver that Windows will install for this device is the driver used for HID devices and it is part of the Windows operating system. When the dialog box pops up, follow the instructions given in the dialog box. Sometimes Windows will find all the files it needs on its own without giving any prompts. Other times Windows will need to know the location of the files it needs. If Windows prompts for the file locations, insert the CD that was used to install Windows on your PC and point Windows to the root directory of the CD. Windows should find all the files it needs there.

MOUNTING

Refer to the appropriate Appendix in this document and/or to the Magnetic Card Reader Design Kit for complete mounting details.
