Section 3. Operation

File
Open Card - The Open button is for a unique card-specific file used for previous card reads that
have been saved on an individual basis. Card profile charts, which are normally used by
technical personnel, are not saved in the database but may be accessed by using this button when
saved with the save button.
Save Card - The Save Card button is for a unique card-specific file used for saving a card, bar
chart, and card profile information for future reference. This does not save the card in the
database. See Section 4, “Graphics Presentations”, for a description of card profiles.
Archive Database - Allows the operator to move all data before a selected date from the database
to an archive file. If the size of the database is reduced, working with performance charts is
faster. The screen is shown in Figure 3-3. An example of the date for 2 Jan 99 is written as 01
02 99. Any year less than 90 will be considered to be after 2000; for example, 59 will be 2059;
the year 98 will be 1998. MagTek recommends the database should be archived monthly.
Reset Security – See Reset Security below.
Exit - Standard Windows exit from this program.

View
ISO Compliance - The bar chart that appears represents the most recent card that was read. After
a graph or chart has been canceled, this button will retrieve only the most recent card viewed.
Card DataBase - The screen Card Database Search Parameters permits search of data base by
time and date, card stock, system type, and shift. When the parameters are selected, the screen
Card Database Records gives results for amplitude, bit size, adjacent bit, start sentinel, and track,
all of which are listed in Section 4 under Database.
