Property ID:

0x2B

Property Type:

Byte

Length:

1 byte

Get Property:

Yes

Set Property:

Yes

Default Value:

0x3F (‘?’)

Description:

This character is sent as the end sentinel for all tracks with any format. If the
value is 0 no character is sent. If the value is in the range 1 – 127 then the
equivalent ASCII character will be sent.

This property is stored in non-volatile memory, so it will persist when the unit
is power cycled. When this property is changed, the unit must be reset (see
Command Number 2) or power cycled for these changes to take effect.

This property specifies the Format Code that will be returned at the end of a
transmitted card swipe. The application sends four characters, but only the
last three will be set. The first character is reserved for MagTek use. A value
of ‘0’ in the first character means the Format Code is defined by MagTek. A
value of ‘1’ in the first character means the Format Code is user defined.

This property is stored in non-volatile memory, so it will persist when the unit
is power cycled. When this property is changed, the unit must be reset (see
Command Number 2) or power cycled for these changes to take effect.

the ES property will be used instead of this property.
