KEY FEATURES
Secure Multi-Card Processing for Self-Service Terminals
Designed for unattended card processing with multi-technology card support, motorized transport, dual-gate protection and power-failure card handling.
01 — Multi-Card Processing
Supports magnetic stripe reading, contact IC read/write, 13.56MHz contactless IC read/write and SAM card integration in one compact module.
02 — Dual Protective Gates
A primary mechanical gate helps protect against dust, while a secondary controllable motorized gate provides additional protection against foreign objects.
03 — Motorized Card Handling
Motorized card insertion and ejection with rear card retention supports controlled card movement inside unattended terminals.
04 — Power-Failure Card Protection
With a suitable backup capacitor, the reader can reposition a retained card toward the exit or rear retention area during power-failure handling.

INTEGRATION FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About SNR-MR100
Common questions about magnetic cards, contact IC, contactless IC, SAM support and motorized card handling.
What magnetic cards does the SNR-MR100 support?
The SNR-MR100 supports ISO/IEC magnetic card Track 1, Track 2 and Track 3 reading, including both Lo-Co and Hi-Co magnetic cards.
What contact IC cards are supported?
The SNR-MR100 supports ISO/IEC 7816 CPU cards with T=0/T=1 protocols, synchronous IC cards, SL4442/SLE4428 logic cards and AT24C01–AT24C64 memory cards. AT88SC102 reading is also supported.
What 13.56MHz contactless cards does it support?
The SNR-MR100 supports 13.56MHz Mifare Classic and ISO/IEC 14443 Type A/B contactless cards for read/write operation.
Does the SNR-MR100 support SAM cards?
Yes. The SNR-MR100 supports an optional 4-bit or 8-bit SAM card socket, with the 4-bit socket listed as the standard configuration. Final SAM requirements should be confirmed according to the project configuration.
What happens to the card if power is lost?
When configured with a suitable backup capacitor, the SNR-MR100 can reposition the card toward the exit position or rear retention area during power-failure handling. The backup power configuration should be confirmed during system integration.
