Service
Switches
There are three anti-removal service switches: two on the front of the card reader
(see Figure 1), and one on the back side of the unit (see Figure 3). These
switches detect any unauthorized removal attempts and trigger a software event if
the unit is removed in an unauthorized manner. This does not cause any
hardware damage to the reader.
Using the Device
The card transaction procedure can vary depending on the application. Verify the
proper procedure with your application provider before performing a card
transaction.
The UX300 supports both magnetic stripe cards, as well as smart cards. The
following section describes how to use the device’s multi-card reader.
Using the Multi-Card
Reader
The device’s card reader supports both a triple-track card reader, as well as a
variety of smart cards.
To conduct a card
transaction
1 Position the card, with the magnetic stripe facing downward and to the right of
the card, or with the chip on the top right of the card (see Figure 12).
2 Insert the card into the card reader slot in a smooth, continuous motion until it
seats firmly.
If using a magnetic card, proceed to Step 3.
If using a smart card, proceed to Step 4.
