Unitech MS241 Magnetic Strip Reader

Unitech MS241 The MS241 is the perfect MSR tool for applications such as point of sale, access control, and self-service applications. The MS241 is known to be reliable, and easy to install and use. It allows cards to be swiped and read in both directions. An LED provides feedback to the user indicating ready to read or read error.

The MS241 is available in dual and triple track configurations for reading ISO cards and driver's licenses. Readers can be affixed to most computer keyboards or to any flat surface, and connected to any PC or Mac via keyboard wedge or USB interface. Data is read from the card and sent to the PC or Mac just as if it were entered from the keyboard. No programming, software drivers, or external power is required.

The MS241 can, however, be programmed to output your data exactly according to your requirements via the revolutionary Reader Configuration Manager software, available only for Unitech card readers. RCM is an easy to use Windows application that communicates your specific data output requirements directly to your MSR241. (MS241s connected to Macs might need to be configured via PC.)
