Barcode slot readers are devices that look like magnetic stripe readers, except they read barcodes that are printed on them. The slot readers connect to a PC by a keyboard wedge cable that connects between the keyboard and the PC or by a USB cable. The barcode is read by visible red optics in the slot and then decoded and sent to the PC. This device is commonly used for access ID cards, time clock and other check-in and check-out applications. It reads bar codes printed on paper, card stock, or plastic. It can be programmed to divide, rearrange, edit, and validate fields of scanned data. In addition, it allows for up to 16 preamble or postamble characters.
