The Mini Wedge Reader looks
transparent to both the keyboard and the PC until a card is read. Power is
supplied via the keyboard port from the PC. When a card is read, the Reader
disables the keyboard and sends card data using the same scan codes used by the
keyboard. The PC cannot distinguish between data from the keyboard and data from
the Reader. In addition to reading the standard credit card and driver license
formats, these readers will read custom formats such as 7-bit encoding on all 3
tracks.
