The MCR33xx card reader/writer is a compact, versatile peripheral, suitable for the most widely
disparate applications, even in the hardest environmental conditions.
In accordance with ISO standards, the MCR33xx can record both low and high coercivity cards,
by means of a simple software-driven selection.
Available in different versions depending on the installed options, the MCR33xx can be used
manually (in desktop configuration), or in self-service applications (open frame configuration).
The desktop version is available with the external 110/230 Volt power supply unit.
Connection with the system is through an RS-232 serial interface.

MCR33xx IN THE SYSTEM
MCR33xx
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
Fully controlled function by software with autotests, FW download, no jumper or setting. Specific
software and driver to test, demo, work and troubleshoot.
Shutter
The shutter (installed only in the self service configuration) is activated by an electromagnet; its
open or shut position is detected by a microswitch located on the right side of the electromagnet.
On the left side of the inlet is installed a microswitch that detects the presence of the card, while a
reading head positioned on the lower side checks the incoming card for the presence of written
magnetic tracks, to prevent objects other than written magnetic cards from being inserted into the
peripheral.
Card Transport
Astepped motor controls the transport of the card inside the MCR33xx.Three conveyor rollers,
moved by three positive drive belts, move the card over the read/write head.
Card Reading/Writing
High and/or low coercivity head mounted on a special support fastened by means of a leaf spring.
The head can read and write the tracks through a software selection; there are no jumpers or dip
switches.
High precision mechanics let the card slide over special bearings.
Power Supply
Only the desktop version is equipped with an external power supply
unit. The self service version is fitted with a 4-way connector, whose
specifications are described in the figure that follows.
