APPENDIX A NATIVE RESOLUTION CHAPTER4 The native resolution of a monitor is the resolution level at which the LCD panel is designed to perform best. For the Elo LCD touchmonitor, the native resolution is 1024 x 768 for the XGA-15 inch size. In almost all cases, screen images look best when viewed at their native resolution. You can lower the resolution setting of a monitor but not increase it.
As an example, a SVGA resolution LCD panel has 800 pixels horizontally by 600 pixels vertically. Input video is also represented by the same terms. XGA input video has a format of 1024 pixels horizontally by 768 pixels vertically. When the input pixels contained in the video input format match the native resolution of the panel, there is a one to one correspondence of mapping of input video pixels to LCD pixels.

SECTION 1. OVERVIEW The MagTek Device (MTD) Drivers for Windows is a collection of individual drivers that support a number of MagTek products. These drivers provide a uniform application interface for controlling a wide range of MagTek devices. The drivers, combined with a device control language, solve many of the difficulties application developers face when attempting to control hardware devices.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows • MagTek devices are attached to the host in different ways. MagTek devices may be attached to a serial port, parallel port, to another device or even to the keyboard port. All these ports differ greatly in nature and would all have to be accessed by the application. Additionally, meaningful communication with a device attached to the keyboard port would be tricky at best.
Section 1. Overview usually remain unchanged, even though the new device may be very different from the old one. The features of a driver that implement a device control language completely shield an application developer from the complexities of device-specific functionality. LANGUAGE OVERVIEW The device control language is text based and designed to utilize the read and write file I/O facilities of the underlying operating system.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows COMMANDS Like properties, commands are identified by a string name and have string arguments. All commands are terminated by line feed or a carriage return. To invoke a command, an application simply writes it to the driver in the same manner as writing to a file or serial port. If the command has a response defined for it, the application reads it from the driver using the same I/O handle as in the write.
Section 1. Overview TYPICAL OPERATION This section describes a typical pattern that an application developer may use to operate a device. Although it is the most typical pattern, it is by no means the only viable one. Refer to Section 5, Example Applications, to see how to use the drivers in various applications. Open a device Access to the device is obtained by opening the comxx: port that the device was installed as.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows instruct the device to return the card data when swiped. All the facilities of the driver are utilized during this stage of operation. Close the device When the application is finished with the device, it simply closes the port using the handle obtained when it opened it. The driver shuts down the device if required. Note In some cases with Windows 95, the Driver may not be closed properly.
Section 1. Overview Settings tab. This gives both the Friendly Name and the port name (COM<5-15>). It also identifies the physical port that will be used to communicate with the device. Open the device using either of the previous names. Use whatever facility is provided by your development environment for opening files. For Visual Basic, do the following: 'set error handling On Error Resume Next ‘open the port for binary access Open “\\.\micr+” For Binary Access Read Write As #1 If Err.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows ‘set up error handling On Error Resume Next ‘submit echo command Put #1, , "/echo Hello" + Chr$(10) ‘declare an input buffer a$ = String(2000, Chr$(0)) ‘read echo response from device Get #1, , a$ If Err.Number <> 0 Then <> End If Note File I/O interaction with the device is synchronous; the read operation will block until a response is received from the device or is returned by the driver (as in a property request).
Section 1. Overview 1. It can prompt the user to repeat the action and re-submit the command. This is typical if the status does not indicate a failure, per se, but that the device may not be ready yet or first needs some other interaction by the user. 2. It can reset the device and prompt the user to repeat the action. Typically, this action is necessary if the device’s state or configuration has been corrupted, but is otherwise functioning correctly. 3.

INSTALLATION The drivers are installed by means of the Windows “Add New Hardware” facility in Windows 95/98/ME and the "INF" installation feature in Windows NT/2000/XP. Refer to "Appendix A. Installation And Setup" for a full description of the installation procedure.
SECTION 2. PROPERTIES This section lists the properties that are used in the MagTek Drivers. Properties can be interrogated by issuing a get command and modified with a set command. Refer to Section 3. Commands for complete description and examples of all commands. The c_xxx properties are set by the driver and reflect the device’s capabilities. However, the c_xxx properties do not indicate the configuration of the device.

SECTION 3. COMMANDS This section describes all of the commands that can be used with the MagTek Windows Device Drivers. Some commands require parameters to indicate to the driver exactly what function is to be performed. While there are a few device-specific commands, most commands can be used with any device. DATA FORMAT All commands sent to the driver and all responses received are strings of printable ASCII characters delimited by . The driver will also accept as a delimiter.

Fixed Size (Bold) Italic [] (a|b) Used to represent literals (symbols, exactly as sent or received from driver) Used to represent placeholders (variable fields) Expression parts in brackets are optional. The brackets are never a part of the syntax ASCII control character.
Section 3. Commands display Function Syntax Show a single message or two alternating messages on the device’s display. /display [x] The optional argument x indicates the message to be displayed. Errors none Remarks If the optional argument x is provided, this command displays it as a single message. If x is @, the driver sends a command to the device to display the idle message 00 (“Welcome”). If x is omitted, the command uses the values of the msg1 and msg2 properties for the message texts.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows event Function Syntax Errors Remarks Response to an unsolicited event notification. none none This response can occur when an unsolicited event, such as card inserted, occurs.
Section 3. Commands load_key Function Syntax Errors Load an encryption key into the device. /load_key n key n can be one of the following values: M – master key (key is in clear text) S – session key (key is encrypted under Master Key) 0 ... 3 – lower working keys (key is encrypted under Session Key) A ... J – upper working keys (key is encrypted under Session Key) key is the 16- or 32-character value of the key to be loaded.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows rawrecv Function Syntax Errors Receive data from the device. /rawrecv /rawrecv 45 If a command is already pending. /rawrecv 82 If the command was canceled by the user (e.g., with CLEAR key) Remarks This command overrides the default processing of the next message that comes from the device and returns it to the application as a rawrecv response.
Section 3. Commands rawsend Function Syntax Send arbitrary data to the device. /rawsend x x is an arbitrary string which is transmitted directly to the device. The string x is passed as-is to the device, except for ‘\’ which is used as an ‘escape’ character: • \r is converted to • \n is converted to • \\ is converted to \ • \xhh is converted to a character with ASCII value hh (always two hex digits), e.g., \x20 is converted to a space.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows read Function Syntax Read data from the device. /read [[x] y] The optional argument x specifies the data source; if x is missing, a card will be read. Refer to the Read Argument table below for a description data sources. The optional argument y is used to specify a message to be displayed on the LCD screen, if supported, before carrying out the command. If y is omitted and the device supports a display, the text in the msg1 property is shown.
Section 3. Commands Read Arguments The optional argument x used in the read command specifies the type of data to read and y specifies the text to be displayed. The following table describes the recognized x arguments for the read command: Read Argument any card card_w_pin check Description Read any type of data. This option is equivalent to read without any arguments. Read magnetic stripe card. Display message (msg 1) if defined.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows Read Argument chk_or_card key_press key_string 100 Description Read magnetic stripe card or check data. When a card or check is swiped through the device, the driver sends the respective response. Display a message (msg4) on the LCD screen, if available, and wait for a key on the keypad to be pressed. The device will wait for entry_tout seconds for the key press (by default 0 for no timeout).
Section 3. Commands Read Argument pin Description Collect PIN from cardholder and read PIN data from the device. The following properties may be set before issuing this command: • account_no – cardholder account number, including check digit, if required • amount – transaction amount in cents, without punctuation, if required • enc_key – (MSK mode only) encryption key to use: M for master, S for session, 0-3 for lower working keys, A-J for upper working keys.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows reset Function Syntax Errors Remarks Reset the device. /reset none Clear any pending operations and reset the device to initial state (for mechanized card devices this command will also eject the card). This does not affect any of the properties. Example To return a device to its initial state: Command Response /reset none set Function Syntax Set a property. /set prop val prop is one of the valid properties (R/W) shown in Section 2.
Section 3. Commands write Function Syntax Errors Data encode command. /write data /write 94 Encode is not supported on this device. /write 34 The data field was in the incorrect format. /write 82 The write command was canceled. /write 45 Device in wrong mode (e.g., if /read already issued) /write 60 Error during write operation (e.g.

SECTION 4. MAGNETIC CARD DATA PARSING This section describes the flexible data parsing language to be used by the MagTek device drivers to parse specific fields from magnetic card data and expose those fields as properties which may be retrieved by an application using the /get command. The data parsing language is flexible in that it can define both standard and custom formats to be parsed by the driver.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows • • Property names specified in format rules are 11 characters or less, consisting of alphabetic characters, digits, and ‘_’. The property name begins with an alphabetic character. Properties used in format strings do not conflict with properties defined by the driver. If there is a duplicate property (e.g., dev_version) specified in the format strings, the driver will return the value of the parsed property rather than the device version string.
Section 4. Magnetic Card Data Parsing If the driver is successful in applying one of the rules, the name of the applied format is available in the property applied_fmt. LANGUAGE FORMAT Format Name (fmtx_name) The format name specifies an identifier by which to identify the format template and/or rules being applied. The maximum length of this property is 11 characters. The names can be repeated on subsequent templates.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows A format rule describes how the data is to be parsed. Characters that must be matched as literals are placed as is in the string or preceded with a ‘\’ if the character is one of the following: ‘[’, ‘]’, ‘(’, ‘)’, ‘*’, ‘_’, ‘<’, ‘>’, ‘:’, ‘.’, or ‘\’. Fields that are either to be parsed or ignored are contained within <>. The format rules string cannot exceed 1027 characters.
Section 4. Magnetic Card Data Parsing Field Type Literal Example ^ Non-ASCII literal \r, \n, \\, \xhh Optional choice (x|y|…) Optional field [x] Optional track {xy} Description A literal is placed in the string as is and is used to determine if a particular format should be applied and to mark the end of a variable-length field. Specify an escape character or non-ASCII character.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows The property name can also contain a modifier at the end preceded by a ‘:’ which specifies the type of data to store in that property. For example specifies that customer name should contain alphabetic characters, spaces, and punctuation. The modifier may also be used with ignore-fields (i.e., <*>). If no modifier is provided, any type of characters is assumed.
Section 4. Magnetic Card Data Parsing DEFAULT FORMATS The MTD drivers will be assigned parameters with default formats for parsing magnetic stripe data. The formats will be placed in the INF file for the driver and written to the registry when the driver is installed. Some examples are shown below; more are included with the drivers. In these examples, spaces are inserted between fields for readability; they should not be included in the actual rules.
MagTek Device Drivers for Windows fmt5_name "AAMVA" fmt5_template"%<*>?;<*>?{(+|%|#|!)<*>?}" fmt5_rules "{%^$$^^<*>? ;<*[6]>=<*>? {(+|!|#|%)<*[2]><*[16]> <*>?}}, {%^$^^<*>? ;<*[6]>=<*>? {(+|!|#|%)<*[2]><*[16]> <*>?}}" In the examples for CADL (Califo
