Magnetic-stripe and barcode slot reader
The ID TECH OMNI WCR3237-600US reads up to three tracks of magnetic data and most barcode symbologies in a single bi-directional swipe. A sealed slot protects the optics from debris in unattended kiosks and access-control points. USB connectivity and an included cable simplify integration with Windows, Linux or embedded controllers. Programmable output formats let the device match existing host protocols without firmware changes.
USB cable and programmable interface
The supplied USB cable provides both power and data, drawing a maximum of 35 mA at 5 VDC so no external supply is needed. Configuration software allows the integrator to tailor prefix, suffix, track separators and beeper tone to the host application. Three-colour LED and audible beeper give immediate swipe feedback for self-service users. Settings are stored in non-volatile memory and survive power cycles.
One-million-pass head duty cycle
The magnetic head is rated for 1 000 000 swipe cycles, a figure that determines whether the reader suits high-volume unattended deployments. Operating temperature spans 32 to 131 °F (0 to 55 °C) with up to 95 % non-condensing humidity. The unit measures 1.38 x 2.05 x 5.00 inches and weighs 1.40 lbs including the power pack. Buyers needing contactless NFC or chip-card acceptance must select a different device.

Questions about this item
How many swipes can the magnetic head handle before it needs replacement?
The magnetic head is rated for one million passes, so it will last through very high-volume use before any service is required.
What is the maximum read speed of the barcode scanner?
The scanner reads barcodes at speeds from 5 up to 65 inches per second.
How much power does the reader draw from the USB port during all-day operation?
It requires 5 VDC at up to 35 mA, a very low draw that adds minimal heat to the host system.
