Intermec™ CN3 & CN4 Snap-On OCR and MSR Reading Adapter Accessory

Intermec MSR OCR adapter accessory

Access' Intermec ™CN3 & CN4 mobile computer snap-on accessory, model OCR310-CN3, provides optical character recognition (OCR) and/or magnetic swipe (MSR) reader capability for the Intermec mobile computer.

 

Three base models exist: combined OCR and MSR reader, MSR reader only and OCR reader only.

 

Simply by attaching to the heel of the Intermec device, the unit is fully functional. Green LEDs give a visual indication of a good read.

 

Careful power management within the adapter minimises the units power consumption. In addition, a DC power and charging jack at the bottom of the unit allows for the addition of an external power source.

 

OCR Functionality

 

The OCR reading functionality captures code lines reliably from machine readable documents including passports (MRP), visas (MRV) and OCRB encoded cards such as the US Resident Alien card and European national ID cards. In addition, APACS debit and credit documents can be read (APACS standards 3.1 and 3.2, respectively), together with E13B, OCRB and mixed E13B and OCRB fonts.

 

MSR Functionality

 

The MSR is capable of reading two tracks of a mag stripe, with a further option to read track 3. This allows the adapter to read a number of magnetic media including loyalty and credit cards conforming to ISO7811/2-5, ATB2 travel documents.
