The Identifier automatically initiates an age verification
transaction whenever; a) a magnetic stripe encoded
license is swiped through the terminal or, b) a barcode
encoded license is scanned with the optional barcode
wand.
The following describes the actions that occur for each
transaction type. Note that whenever user input is
required, The Identifier will timeout in approximately
ten seconds if no entry is made, displaying NO INPUT
....... ...CANCELING, and return to the Main Menu
Screen.
MAG CARD TRANSACTION
Swipe a magnetic stripe encoded license through the
terminal reader. One of the following messages will appear
on the display after the license is swiped:
INVALID CARD - This means that the license is
unreadable or not a valid license.
CARDHOLDER IS (21) YEARS OF AGE -This means
that only track 2 (the date of birth/expiration date
information on the license) was read and the age was
computed. The details of this transaction are then saved*
for later retrieval and a receipt is printed*. The reading of
only one track can happen with a worn or damaged
license.
*- Only if the respective option is selected.
CARD EXPIRED - This means that, based upon the
-4-
expiration date contained on the magnetic stripe, the
license is expired and no longer valid.
CARD HOLDER IS UNDER 21 - This is displayed if the
license holder is under 21 but over 17. The display blinks
and is accompanied by an audible alarm. The same display
will appear if the license holder is under 18 (with 18
replacing 21 above.)
INVALID XXX YYY - The Identifier analyzes the details
of the data contained on a license. This display is shown
if any one of those analyses finds something invalid on the
license. A typical display would be where XXX = [dob] or
[exp] for date of birth or expiration date respectively and
YYY =[mth] or [day].

wand connected to The Identifier. The same information
