Description
The Model 430 and 435 Magnetic Stripe Readers are rugged, reliable, and easy to install. Model 430 is a magnetic stripe technology reader that can emulate the operation of an IBM 5029 reader, allowing for communication with older microcontrollers. Simply set a jumper to select 5029 emulation mode. Model 435 incorporates a keypad into a magnetic stripe technology reader and can also operate in IBM 5029 emulation mode – however, all keypad functions are disabled. These readers easily replace existing IBM Model 5029 readers without the need to rewire or change existing microcontrollers. Simply unplug the 5029 reader and plug in the Model 430 or 435 reader to the reader’s DB-9 connector.
