Inserting the CardTool
To insert the CardTool, align the unit with the Handspring expansion slot (see figure
1) and gradually insert the unit. It should insert smoothly until it makes contact with
the expansion slot stops. Do not force the unit into the expansion slot. If resistance
is significant, withdraw CardTool and ensure there are no foreign objects in the
expansion slot and that CardTool is properly aligned with the Visor expansion slot,
then try again.
Figure 1 – CardTool Reader inserting into Handspring Visor Springboard expansion slot
CardVisor Application Installation
The CardVisor software is stored in the flash memory of the CardTool reader and
automatically launches after plugging in the CardTool reader into the handheld. A
welcome screen appears which instructs the user to press the Date Book button to
launch the main screen of CardVisor magnetic stripe application (shown below). If
the bar code reader cradle is installed, then pressing the Address Book button will
launch the bar code version of CardVisor.
It is VITAL to check the date and time displayed in the top right corner of the screen.
If the date is not correct, then the calculated age will be incorrect! To set the
date/time, click on the Applications Icon (looks like a small house in the graffiti area),
then click on the ‘Prefs’ icon. Tap on the box, which contains the date or time, and
then follow the prompts to change. Details also provided in the Handspring User
guide.

CardVisor III & IV Main Screen CardVisor I & II Main Screen
Main Screen Description
The main screen is where the magnetic card data and status is displayed after each
swipe. At the bottom of the screen is a dialog box where user messages such as
“Swipe Again” are displayed.
Swiping a Magnetic Card
1. With the CardVisor application running on the Handspring Visor, hold the unit in
your left hand (if you are a lefty, hold the unit in your right hand).
2. Using the other hand, hold the drivers license with the MagStripe facing towards
you and swipe the card towards your body. The above illustration is for a right-
handed person.
3. Ensure that the magnetic card’s edge remains in full contact with the base of the
card slot, swipe the card completely through the card slot.
4. It does not matter which way the card is swiped, but it is important that the card
is not skewed / tipped during the swipe. Skewing occurs if the card is tilted or
lifted as it is swiped through the slot.
5. The CardVisor age verification software will display the drivers license information
on the screen after a successful swipe and store the data in the Visor memo pad
application.

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 7 of 32
Tip: Try a few practice swipes, hold the magnetic card in the center and maintain
pressure on the bottom edge of the card as it travels through the slot. Experiment
with the speed and orientation. Some find it easier to hold the Handspring Visor with
the screen facing left or right and swiping the card vertically through the card slot.
CardVisor Options Menu
The Options menu is used to configure the software. To access it, click on the Menu
Icon, just below the Application icon (small house in the graffiti area -see previous
diagram). Depending on the version of CardVisor software, there are three or four
items on the Options menu. The Reset option will re-initialize the CardTool hardware.
If the unit is not responding to a card swipe, try the reset option. If successful, the
“Swipe A Card” message will be displayed. If not, see the trouble shooting section in
this document.
Options Menu of CardVisor
CardVisor I and II do NOT have the
‘Test VIP/Banned Database’ item
Screen After Reset Command
The ‘About CardVisor’ displays information on the application and its developer. The
‘Age Threshold and Alarms’ item sets the age
thresholds for various alarm events, alarm sounds,
and display options. See the Age Threshold and Alarm
section in this document for additional details. The
‘Test VIP / Banned Database’ item is present in
CardVisor III & IV and should be run whenever a new
Banned/VIP database is loaded into the handheld.
What is the Graffiti Area?
The Graffiti writing area is divided into two parts: one
for writing letters, and onefor writing numbers. The
little "abc" or "123" at the bottom corners of the
Graffiti writing area tell you where to write letters or
numbers. You can also tap the "abc" or "123" to
bring up the onscreen keyboard.

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 8 of 32
Age Threshold and Alarms
The Age Threshold and Alarm screen configures at what age CardVisor will alarm at
and what alarm sound will be played. There are six sounds available for the under
18, under 19, under 20, under 21, and expired license conditions. After selecting a
new sound, CardVisor will play it before updating the display.
The Expired alarm may not be disabled, only the alarm sound may be changed. The
Happy Birthday song may be disabled by un-checking the check box. If checked, one
may select either the long or short version of the Happy Birthday. The Visual
indication of a birthday will be displayed on the main screen status line.
If the Age YYMMDD item is checked, then the age will be displayed in years months
and days. This allows one to see how close somebody’s birthday is and wish them a
pre-happy birthday. If un-checked, then the age is displayed just in years.
Memo Pad
Press the Memo Pad Button to see the stored license data. Tapping on each line will
provide a detailed view of the swiped license data. The driver's license data is
parsed and stored as Memos in MemoPad application (built-in Palm OS application)
under the CardVisor category. Shown below is a list of Parsed transactions on the
main MemoPad screen. On the right is the detailed data showing the following
parsed information; First, Middle, Last Name, Title (Jr., Sr., II, 3rd, etc.), Address, City,
State, Zip, Driver's License number (0213654424), Expiration date (YYYYMMDD),
Date of Birth YYYYMMDD of birth, Gender (M/F), the status of the swipe (OK, Under
18, Under 19, ID Expired, etc.), and the scan date & time. Also shown are the field
separator characters (^), used when importing the data into programs like Microsoft
ACCESS or Microsoft Excel.

MemoPad showing all
memo Categories Parsed Data in CardVisor Category Individual Memo showing parsed data
In addition to the parsed data, an unparsed record is also stored in the MemoPad
application under the RawData category. This provides a convenient method to cross
check the parsed information, provide technical feedback to TokenWorks and verify
additional fields from the driver's license..
Unparsed Data in
‘RawData’ Category Individual Memo showing unparsed data
Before a new Memo is stored in MemoPad, the last memo is compared to the new
pending Memo. If it is identical in every respect, including the date and time stamp,
then the new memo is not stored. If the new Memo differs in just the time, it is still
stored. This feature prevents redundant Memos for the same license swiped
repeatedly in succession.
Protecting ID Scanner Data
This feature should be used with caution as forgetting the PIN code will require
erasing all saved transaction data. Drivers License Transaction data records are
stored as Memos (in MemoPad application ) and are marked Private by the CardVisor
software. They may be hidden or masked by entering a user selected PIN code via
the security application (old fashion key icon on home screen). Shown below is
what the transaction data stored in MemoPad look like when masked or hidden.

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 10 of 32
Transaction Data Visible Transaction Data Masked Transaction Data Hidden
To set the PIN code, select the Security Application (shown below) from the Home
screen. Then select Mask Records or Hide Records from the Current Privacy Menu.
Selecting either will prompt a Password or PIN code to be entered, which must then
be confirmed.
Security App.-lower right Select Show or Mask Enter Password
Note: If the PIN code or Password is forgotten, there is no way to recover it via the
standard security application. Resetting the Password will delete all the transaction
data. Use this feature with caution.
Confirm Password Mask Records Enabled Hide Records Enable

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 11 of 32
Note: This same PIN code can be to 'lock' the system so that turning it back on
requires the PIN code. See the Handspring User
guide for using this feature. Again, use the PIN
code feature with caution as forgetting the PIN code
requires a hard reset which will erase all data in the
handheld.
Note: Version 3.5 of the Palm OS Security
application (Platinum, Neo, Prism, Pro, Edge) allow
private data to be hidden or masked. Version 3.1
(Deluxe & Solo have version 3.1) can only hide
private data. Below is the Security Screen from
version 3.1.
Tip - Appending Notes to Swipe Data via MemoPad
After a license has been swiped, it is possible to add one or more comments that will
be uploaded to one or more columns in the Excel spread sheet. This is a great way
for CardVisor III & IV clients to mark a customer as a VIP or Banned individual. It is
also an easy way to record additional fields such as email addresses or phone
numbers. Whenever the Excel import wizard sees the ^ character, it puts the
following data into the next column of the spreadsheet. At the end of each parsed
string (CardVisor Category Memo), there is the carat character. Just tap the stylus at
the end of the line and start making notes. Notes can be made using the keyboard
or via Graffiti (see Graffiti chart in this manual).

Security Palm OS ver. 3.1

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 12 of 32
Additional columns can be added to the spreadsheet by appending additional ^
characters. See the Graffiti chart on how to write this character. Note: It is not
necessary to have a carat symbol as the last character in the memo. Excel will put
the last field in the proper column with or without a carat symbol at the end.
Appending Notes to License Data (CardVisor III feature)
CardVisor III software allows additional notes (up to 80 characters) to be added to
the Parsed License Data Memo. This is useful for recording marketing information
such as phone numbers and email address or other significant information about an
individual.
After License Scan Input Note (email address) After hitting Append button –
Note Confirmation Message
Only one note can be appended to a license that is swiped successively. In other
words, if a license is swiped and a note is appended and the same license is swiped
again and a new note is appended, the second note will replace the first note. If a
multiple field note is desired, then insert the ‘^’ character between each field when
inputting the note.

CardVisor IV – Anti Card Pass Back
CardVisor®IV age verification software has all the features of CardVisor III plus an ID
Anti-Pass-Back feature. This feature may be used several ways;
• at the front door to detect licenses which are 'Passed-Back' to outsiders,
• at the bar to identify individuals who are consuming too much, or
• at the bar to identify individuals who are purchasing for their underage friends.
• at the front door to confirm returning patrons have paid cover charge.
• helps detect fake IDs which have the same 'cloned' data stripe.
Some clubs use the ID Pass-Back detection to ensure wrist bands or ink stamps have
not been transferred from exiting customers. If a customer's ID was scanned when
they first entered and were banded/marked, then when they leave & return, an 'ID
Pass-Back' alarm should be generated when the ID is rescanned.
Shows license number, DOB with current
scan time at the top of the list and
previous scans below.
Multiple scans in a short period of time
may indicate over serving or drinks are
being purchased for underage friends
Automatic Anti Pass-Back Database Management
The database used by the Anti Pass-Back code is automatically deleted after 12
hours of inactivity. In normal operation, this means the database is cleared and
ready for use on a nightly basis, assuming no IDs are swiped for 12 hours. This
automatic management feature can be over ridden by manually deleting the
database from the handheld computer's memory.
Manually deletion of Anti Pass-Back database
Select Delete from main menu Select AntiPassBack Database Confirm Deletion

CardTool Removal
To remove the CardTool, either
use the thumb stop on the back
of the unit to gradually push it
out of the expansion slot or grab
the CardTool at the base of the
card slot and pull it away from
the Handspring Visor in the
same plane as the expansion
slot. Try not to grab the
CardTool by the top and bottom
but rather each side at the base
of the card slot. Grabbing the
top and bottom of the CardTool
will generate a force component,
which will increase the friction
and make it harder to remove. Note: If the Visor is turned off, removal of the CardTool
(or any other module) turns the Visor on.
Maintenance and General Care
• The CardTool is not waterproof. Do not expose to rain or moisture
• Do not drop the CardTool or subject it to strong impact.
• Protect it from temperature extremes. Do not leave on the dashboard of a car
on a hot day and keep it away from heaters and other heat sources.
• Do not store or use your CardTool in any location that is extremely dusty, damp
or wet.
• Ensure the magnetic heads are occasionally cleaned with commercially
available magnetic cleaning cards.
• Clean exterior of case with a dry lint free cloth and do not use abrasive cleaning
products.

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 15 of 32
Resetting the Handheld
Under normal circumstances, you will not have to use the reset button. On occasions,
however your handheld may no longer respond to buttons, cardswipes or screen
taps. In this case, you need to perform a reset to get your handheld running again.
Performing a soft reset
A soft reset tells the handheld to stop what it’s doing and start over again. All records
and entries stored in your handheld are retained with a soft reset.
Locate the Stylus on the right side of the handheld. If you unscrew the tip of the
Stylus (the end you write with), you'll notice a blunt plastic pin, which fits exactly into
your handheld's reset hole. Or, you can unfold a paper clip (or similar object without a
sharp tip), to gently press the reset button inside the hole on the back panel of your
handheld. After a soft reset, the General Preferences screen will display the current
time and date. Make sure the date/time is accurate before proceeding. Remove
and re-insert the CardTool reader to re-associate the Date Book button with the
CardVisor application. Then press the Date Book button and swipe a card.

Performing a Hard Reset
Warning: A HARD RESET WILL ERASE ALL TRANSACTION DATA
Don't perform a hard reset unless the soft reset has not worked and you've backed
up your data, or you're willing to lose the transaction data.
To perform a hard reset:
1. Hold down the power (on/off) button on your device. The power button on
Visor organizers is on the front.
2. While holding down the power button, turn over your device so that you can
see the back of it. Using the reset tool, an unfolded paper clip or a similar
small blunt-tipped object, gently press the reset hole on the back. See
Where's the reset hole in the Hardware Reference Guide.
3. When the device's screen displays the Palm Computing Platform logo, release
the power button.
4. A message will appear warning that you are about to erase all the data stored
on your handheld. In response, do one of the following:
o Press the up scroll button on the front panel of your handheld to
complete the hard reset, erasing everything on your device
or
o Press any other button to begin a soft reset, leaving your data intact.
5. Your device will then take you through a series of screens to calibrate the
digitizer and verify the time and date.
Note: A hard reset does not delete the current date and time. It does restore other
settings to the factory default. .

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 17 of 32
Power Down Reset - AAA battery devices only
A power down reset erases all the data on your device, including a few settings (like
date and time) which are untouched by a hard reset. By removing your AAA batteries,
you allow the capacitor to drain, essentially returning your device to its "factory state."
A power down reset is only for devices that use AAA alkaline batteries (i.e. not a
rechargeable handheld).
Warning: A power down reset will erase everything on your device except the
CardVisor program, which is stored in the CardTool reader. All your data will be
removed, and formats, preferences and other settings are restored to their factory
default settings. Don't perform a power down reset unless you've backed up your
data, or you're willing to lose everything. A POWER DOWN RESET WILL ERASE ALL
TRANSACTION DATA
1. Remove the AAA batteries from the back of your handheld.
2. Leave the batteries out of the handheld for at least 30 minutes.
3. Perform five or more soft resets in a row, even if the screen does not appear to
turn on.
4. Insert the batteries. If you have any doubts about how old your batteries are,
replace them with new AAA alkaline batteries, preferably a good brand
optimized for low-drain devices.
5. If your device doesn't automatically turn on when you insert the batteries (or if,
once it turns on, the date and time have not been reset), you haven't
successfully performed a power down reset. Try the steps above again. Wait a
little longer this time before inserting the batteries, and perform a few more
soft resets while the batteries are out.
6. After a successful power down reset, you’ll need to perform all the steps
associated with setting up the device like setting the time, inserting the
CardTool reader, etc.
Battery Life for Handheld Computer
The CardTool uses the battery power from the Handspring Visorhandheld
computer. If you leave the module installed and use it everyday, you can expect a
fresh set of alkaline AAA batteries to last about 2-3 weeks or 6000 swipes, whichever
comes first. To conserve battery life, remove the CardTool from the Visor when not in
use.
1. If the batteries become low in the course of normal use, an alert appears on the
handheld screen describing the low battery condition. If this alert appears,
perform a HotSync ® operation to back up your data before you replace the

CardVisor Hardware Manual Page 18 of 32
batteries. This helps prevent accidental data loss.
2. When replacing the batteries begin by turning your handheld off (so there is no
screen display). Never remove the batteries while your handheld is turned on.
When replacing the batteries, always use new alkaline batteries. Batteries from
other devices (TV remote, etc.) will not have enough power to turn on the Visor.
3. When you remove the batteries, the built-in backup power of your handheld
maintains memory data for a period of up to one minute. Whenever you remove
the batteries, replace them immediately. If you encounter any difficulties in the
course of battery replacement, reinstall the original batteries and wait a few
minutes for the backup power to recharge.
4. If you leave drained batteries in your handheld for an extended period of time, you
will lose all of the stored data. If you install used batteries in you handheld, the
handheld may lock up. If this happens, replace the batteries with new ones and
reset your handheld. (See “Resetting the handheld” section of this guide for
details.) After you reset your handheld, perform a HotSync operation to restore the
data from your desktop computer.
5. For Handspring Visors with built-in rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries (Prism,
Edge, Pro), return the unit to the charging base or bar code reader cradle under
AC power whenever not in use. Note: This ensure these models get their batteries
constantly topped off.
6. For Handspring Visors using alkaline batteries, consider purchasing rechargeable
NiMH AAA batteries. A list of batteries/chargers is provided on the TokenWorks
web site in the support section.
