Further information on Preh MC25 WX Keyboard
A 25 key keyboard with a built in 2 track Magnetic
swipe reader (MSR), the MC25 is ideal for POS systems that require
a compact add-on keyboard especially for numeric operation..
In addition the built in MSR caters for cheque
/ debit / credit card processing or loyalty system. When a magnetic
card is swiped, the card data is passed to the POS/PC system via
the keyboard interface as if typed.
The key map is stored on board the keyboard via
an EEPROM and is easily modified without the use of DIP switches
via a PC based program. Through this unique interface and a daisy
chained standard keyboard, all keys and options of the keyboard
can be programmed with strings, scan codes or ASCII information.
Keyboard configurations can be read from the keyboard, modified
and written back to the keyboard. Additionally, configurations
can be saved out to a file for storage and later modification.
MSR track selection can also be programmed along with header and
trailer information (especially useful for EFT programming applications).
In operation no special software is required as
all controls and key assignments are held within the keyboard.
There are 25 single relegendable keys in a 5 x
5 matrix with the option of a numeric set, double (1x2) and quad
(2x2) sized keys. Blanks are also available.
Keyboard size: 126.4mm (W) x 195.7mm (D) x 54.7mm
