Section 1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the MSR 206 Manual Swipe Magnetic Card Reader/Writer. It is ideal for access control, time
keeping, banking, ID recognition & credit verification and related applications. In fact, wherever a magnetic stripe ID
or transaction card is used, one can find a related use for the versatile, user-friendly MSR206 reader/writer.
The MSR 206 is designed to offer a reading and writing solution of high and/or low coercivity cards that will
attractively complement an existing system.
This manual provides detailed information about the MSR 206. For ease of installation and programming use, we have
addressed everything from its attractive features to its various configurations.
When designing the MSR 206, we selected what we feel are the most useful features and functions. If in some cases
you find that your specific needs differ from our existing products, we welcome your comments and suggestions.
Custom-designed models are also available.

15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference
at his own expense.
This MSR206 series also had been tested and found to comply with the agency requirements of specification for CE
mark Class B
EN 50 082-1: 1992 EN 55 022: 1994 Class B

Section 5 Utilities test program
Every MSR206 comes with a utilities test program disk that includes a Windows version. This program is to verify and
demonstrate the functionality of the MSR206. In some cases, it can be used as a card reading and writing program.
System requirement
a. 80286 PC/AT compatibles or later model with color display.
b. Either the following operating systems: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, or NT4.0.
c. 256K available conventional memory.
d. A free serial port (Com 1 or Com 2) with DB9 male connector.
Test program installation
User shall follow the steps below in order to install test program
A. Connect MSR206 to RS232 port, and power on it.
B. Insert utility diskette into floppy disk drive on PC, and execute the self-extracting file (e.g.: MSR206.exe)
C. Execute test program from the subdirectory of ‘Demo AP’ (e.g. 206DDX21.exe)
D. The test program will auto-detect communication port. If there is any errors occurred, it’ll appear in the
information dialog box after opening the program. User can close the AP by pressing OK button.

E. If “Not Find Reader/Writer!” appears in the information dialog box after opening the program, check to see
that the DB9 connector is plugged into the correct COM port and the power cord/connector is also attached to
DB9 thus lighting the green LED on the MSR206.
F. When the test program is first opened, a password dialog box will ask whether you wish a first time password.
If yes, enter a password of one or more characters, maximum to 16 characters. And proceed to step H.
G. If a password is not required, press ESC and a dialog box will ask you to confirm that a password is not
required. Click on Yes and proceed to demo program.
H. When entering a password for the first time, the system will require you to confirm the password, Click OK,
after you reenter your password.
* Remember the password you entered, because if it is forgotten, you must re-install the Test Program.
* Remember, however; should you desire password protection in the future, you must re-install the program.
I. When the test program is opened, you’ll see the main window of the READER/WRITER UTILITY
PROGRAM.
From this main window you can activate all functions by clicking the appropriate buttons and following the on
screen instructions.

J. The test program will auto detect if a MSR206 is connected.
By clicking Setup from main window, you can change COM ports, Leading Zeros for all 3 tracks and BPI of
track 2.
K. By choosing User Type from the main window, you can then define your user parameters by clicking Setup &
selecting User Type.
