Indicator

Description

0

Card Present

Set to 1 when the card seated indicator is set during card
insertion. Set to 0 sometime after the card seated indicator is
cleared during withdrawal. This would occur as soon as one
of the following two events occurs. The magnetic stripe read
ASIC indicates that card data is ready or two seconds has
past since the card seated indicator is cleared. The two
second timeout is only used to handle blank or wrongly
inserted cards. This indicator can be used to indicate the end
of a card insertion or the end or a card withdrawal. Note that
if the MSR direction property is set to non-directional then the
behavior of this indicator changes such that it will behave the
same as the card seated indicator.

1

Card Seated

Set to 1 if a card is seated in the fully inserted position in the
reader else cleared to 0. This bit can be used to indicate the
end of a card insertion or the beginning of a card withdrawal.
If this bit is set then the card is in the correct location for
smart card communications and card latching.

2

Card Latched

Set to 0 at power up or reset because the card is
automatically unlatched at this time. Set to 1 after the host
issues the latch card command. Set to 0 after the host
issues the unlatch card command.

*MagnePrint Noise Set to 1 if the MagnePrint™ circuit is sensing excessive

electrical noise in the environment, else cleared to 0. If this
bit is set MagnePrint™ data may not be available. Moving
the reader away from noise sources (monitors, speakers,
etc.) may solve this problem. Note that the reader will not
check for noise until after a card swipe occurs. So a card has
to be swiped to initiate noise detection. If noise is detected
after the swipe, the reader will continue to check for noise
until the noise is no longer present. If no noise is detected
after the swipe, the reader will not check for noise again until
after the next swipe.
