USB magnetic stripe capture for retail and identification

The Uniform MSR213U reads magnetic stripe cards through a USB HID or keyboard-emulation interface. Bidirectional swiping, an LED and a beeper provide straightforward input for retail, timekeeping and identification applications.

Choose tracks 1 and 2 or tracks 1, 2 and 3. Triple-track configurations support suitable ISO and AAMVA card data; software must support the selected output mode.
