2.1 Magnetic Card Reading

The device can read all three tracks of magnetic stripe cards. It supports bidirectional swiping, meaning you can swipe the card in either direction through the slot.

  1. Ensure the magnetic stripe on the card is facing the correct direction (typically towards the device's interior).
  2. Swipe the card smoothly and consistently through the magnetic card slot.
  3. The green indicator light will flash during a successful read.

Napomena: This device is a magnetic card reader only and does not support magnetic card encoding (writing).

2.2 IC Chip Card Reading and Writing

The MJ-Q80 is equipped with a slot for reading and writing IC chip cards, including EMV chip cards and SLE4442 chip cards. For advanced functionalities with CPU chip cards, APDU commands are required for deep development.

  1. Insert the IC chip card into the designated chip card slot with the chip facing downwards.
  2. Ensure the card is fully inserted until it clicks or is firmly seated.
  3. The device will automatically attempt to read or write to the chip.

2.3 NFC Contactless Card Reading

The device includes a built-in NFC reading module for contactless card transactions. The NFC sensing area is located on the left side of the device.

  1. Locate the NFC sensing area on the left side of the card reader.
  2. Ensure the NFC sensing mode is enabled via the toggle switch (refer to Section 2.4).
  3. Hold the contactless card near the NFC sensing area.
  4. The device will read the card information automatically.
