Parameter block MSR
Parameter:
Function:
CSI n1;...; n5 ! r is used to define under what conditions subsequent MSR tran-
sactions (e. g., reading or writing the magnetic stripe) are to be controlled by the
MSR unit.
– Repetitions
The parameters n1 and n2 are set in case the writing or reading attempts
cannot be carried out without error the first time. These actions will then be
automatically repeated n1 or n2 times. If they do not deliver a correct result
after repetition, the operation will be interrupted. If no data is found on the
magnetic stripe the reading or writing attempt will not be repeated.
– Write/ read format; magnetic stripe position
The parameter n3 specifies the format of the data on the magnetic stripe.
The position of the magnetic stripe on the passbook is defined by the two
parameters n4 and n5, whereby n4 fixes the distance of the stripe in 1/180
inch steps from the edge defined by n5 (0 = top leading edge, 1 = bottom
leading edge).

n1 = number of write repetitions (0 to 2)
n2 = number of read repetitions (0 to 2)
n3 = identifier for the write/ read format (number of the recording format )
n4 = vertical distance from the form edge (0 to 9999 in the measuring
unit 1/ 180 inch, thus n4/ 180 inch)
n5 = leading edge for the vertical distance (0 = top, 1 = bottom).
