5.2.1 Caution of magnetic reading
(1) Be sure to perform sampling of /RDT2 at the falling edge of /RCL2.
Pulse width of period “L” of /RCL is about 19 µs for the card conformable to ISO2
(75 BPI specification).
If sampling method other than edge sampling (such as a method detecting “L” of
/RCL2 by means of polling) is used, please check with us since data may be read
depending on polling frequency at the host
(2) In case that /RCL2 is set to read /RDT2 at the interrupt port of CPU, with the
interruption action of the software in sampling of /RDT2 using the falling edge of
/RCL2, be sure to perform the interruption action within the /RDT2 available time
period.For the /RDT2 available time period, please refer to the following figure.
Where, T0 (fixed) is
approx. 9 µs in case of ISO2 type card reader.
However, T varies with recording density and running speed.
Refer to the following formula to calculate suitable T value for the applied card
recording density and required maximum card running speed. Then set the
interruption action time with sufficient margin.

6.4 Signal description
6.4.1 Signal related with position of card
These sensing switches S1, S2 and S3 are snap action switch.
The sensing switch outputs connect directly I/O connector CN5.
So the interface pull-up resistance and chattering protection circuit are required.
Current range of S1 and S2 switches are defined DC 6 V 5 mA ~ DC 90 V 0.1 A
to insure proper sensing operation with the environmental condition.
Current range of S3 switch is defined DC 5 V 0.04 mA ~ DC 16 V 0.1 A
(recommended operating range DC 5 V 0.1 mA) to insure proper sensing
operation with the environmental condition.
So the interface pull-up resistance should be selected to consider the current
range.

(1) S1
Card present sensor (micro-switch) is positioned at the front of card reader.
The switch is normally open, and it is grounded when the card is inserted in the
card reader.
(2) S2
The card seated sensor (micro-switch) is positioned at the rear of card reader.
The switch is normally open, and it is grounded when the card is fully inserted.
When the switch is grounded, IC contact pins of card reader touch the IC chip on
the smart card, and the card is at the specified position to read and write IC.
(3) S3
The latch sensor (leaf-switch) indicates that the latching mechanism is activated
and in a locked state. The switch is normally open, and it is grounded when the
latch mechanism is activated (=card lock status).
6.4.2 Signal related with latch / unlatch of a card
(1) LC
The latch control signal LC should be normally "L". And the latch mechanism is
actuated to lock the card when the signal goes "H" by detecting a signal from host.
The latch mechanism is on unlatched position when the signal goes "L".
The state of the latch mechanism can be determined by the state of the card-latch
sensor S3.
Note 1: If power is turned off accidentally during the card is latched and is hold inside
of the card reader, the card will be released automatically by unlatch pulse
which is generated by card reader itself. Back up power supply is required
and connected with the card reader.
Panasonic confirm the performance with 8200 µF capacitor, however, please
select right value of capacitor based on actual condition/environment.
In case wrong one is used, unsatisfactory performance may cause.
Note 2: The state of card-latch sensor S3 should be check periodically.
If the latch mechanism is on latch position while it must be on unlatched
position originally, latch mechanism must be change to unlatched position by
following order ;
1) Change LC signal from "L" to "H" and keep "H" more than 200 ms.
2) Change LC signal from "H" to "L" in order to an activate the latch
mechanism. (set the latch mechanism to unlatch position)
3) Re-check the state of card latch sensor S3 and confirm the latch
mechanism is set to unlatch position.
6.4.3 Signal related to reading of magnetic stripes
(1) / RDT2 (Read Data)
When the /RCL2 signal changes from "High" level to "Low" level :
"1" is indicated when the /RDT2 signal is at "Low" level.
"0" is indicated when the /RDT2 signal is at "High" level.
(2) / RCL2 (Read Clock)
This is used to sample the /RDT2 signal at its falling edges.
(3) /CLD
The /CLD line will be low when a magnetic card is running in the card reader.
The /CLD line will be high when the card is stopped or not present in the card
reader.

10. Unit life and reliability
10.1 Life of the magnetic head and IC contact pins
(1) Magnetic head : 500,000 operations (2 passes / 1 operation)
(2) IC contact pin : 500,000 operations
(Condition) In a clean office environment (room).
In damp or dusty atmosphere, the life may be 1/3 to 1/5 of the above figure.
Above life cycles are the numbers which are tested in a "clean office environment".
These numbers may be shortened dependent on the actual environment.
Especially in a dusty environment＊, even in the indoor application, dust or sand
may shorten the life against the mechanical parts and most of the card transport
mechanisms.
In these cases, warranty of the card reader may be void unless the proper
protection and countermeasures are performed by the terminal side.
＊Dusty environment : Refer to ex.)IEC 68,EN30721-3-3 class 3S2 or worse.

11. Precautions
Keep the following precautions when using this unit.
11.1 Handling
(1) Do not drop or give excessive shocks to this unit.
(There are a few cases that card lock mechanism will be released when the
excessive shock is given.)
(2) Do not disassemble this unit.
11.2 Cautions
11.2.1 Card
(1) Use specified card (ISO).
(2) Store the card carefully so as not to soil, injure or deform it.
In particular, solid deposit on the magnetic stripe surface may result in a trouble.
11.2.2 Cleaning
(1) Clean the magnetic head and IC contact pins by periodically passing a cleaning
card.
For example, in a clean office room, pass the cleaning card about once a week. If
the magnetic head is heavily stained, clean the head by soaking the felt part of the
cleaning card in alcohol properly and pass the card. For example, in the case that
the card readers are used in the environment full of dust, please make a cleaning
of the card reader with a cleaning card with alcohol everyday.
The exclusive cleaning card shuld be used for IC contacts pins.
(2) If some kind of oil adheres to the parts for transferring cards, card transfer will be
unstable. Please remove the oil with a cleaning card with alcohol.
11.2.3 Installation
(1) Do not install the card reader in dusty, hot or damp place, or near magnetic field
or object generating inductive noise (printer, LED display unit, CRT, etc.).
Do not use the unit in a dusty place, otherwise the reading and writing accuracy
may be deteriorated.
Keeps the unit away from objects generating magnetism, which may cause read
errors and may damage the magnetic card data.
(2) Do not touch the printed circuit board with bare hand.
Note particularly static electricity.
(3) Do not supply power from other outlet than connector terminal. Pay special
attention to the polarity of power source and wrong connection of connector.
(4) Do not use the unit in a place where it is exposed to sunlight directly or it is
splashed by water.
(5) Install the card reader horizontally with printed circuit board side upward.

Matsushita Industrial Information Equipment Co., Ltd. Specification No.: MIS-DG60C198
14
11.2.4 Others
(1) Check the noise, static electricity, etc., with the card reader being
incorporated in the equipment. Noise from the power supply may cause the
reading errors. Measures to reduce the noise from power supply should be
made for the equipment the card reader is built in. It is especially efficient to
put a noise-filter in the AC input line.
(2) The guaranteed temperature for operation range is -25 °C ~ 70 °C，and
humidity range is 10 % ~ 90 % RH.
Do not use the unit if condensation gathers on it.
We recommend you to use the card reader under the environmental
condition of temperature 10 °C ~ 40 °C which is the best for transferring
cards and reading data.
Especially, in the condition of low temperature, provide heating system
separately to warm up card reader.
(3) A shutter is not built in this card reader. In the case that the card readers
are used in the environment full of dust, the lifetime of the magnetic head,
IC contact pins and mechanism for transferring cards will decrease.
