CARD HANDLING FLOW
Controlled Card Movement Inside the Terminal
The card movement, mounting space and communication requirements can be evaluated before prototype development to simplify integration into your kiosk or terminal.
01 — Card Inserted
Card enters from the front of the terminal.
02 — Card Detected
Infrared photoelectric sensors monitor card status inside the card channel.
03 — Card Positioned
The motorized mechanism moves and positions the card at the required location inside the channel.
04 — Host Command
The kiosk controller manages card handling through RS232 half-duplex communication.
05 — Collect / Retain / Return
The card can be collected, retained or returned according to the terminal workflow.
Optional Reader / Scanner Integration
The card channel can be configured for optional scanner or card reader integration according to project requirements, allowing the card to be positioned for additional reading or identification before collection or return.
Integration Requirements
Technical resources are available to support mechanical installation, hardware testing and software integration.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About SNR-CD3000-D
What card sizes does the SNR-CD3000-D support?
The SNR-CD3000-D supports cards with a length of 85.47–85.90mm, a width of 53.92–54.18mm and a thickness of 0.7–1.1mm. We recommend confirming your actual card samples before project integration.
Can the SNR-CD3000-D both collect and return cards?
Yes. The SNR-CD3000-D supports motorized card collection, card positioning and card return. The card can be collected, retained or returned according to the terminal workflow and host command.
Which communication interface does it use?
The SNR-CD3000-D uses RS232 half-duplex communication with a PH-3PIN connector for host-side control and status management.
Can a card reader or scanner be integrated?
Yes. The card channel can support an optional scanner or card reader according to the project design. The required module and card positioning requirements should be confirmed before integration.
How does the collector detect the card position?
Infrared photoelectric sensors monitor card status throughout the card channel, while the motorized mechanism controls card movement and positioning.
What happens if abnormal card movement occurs?
The SNR-CD3000-D includes an intelligent self-recovery process designed to help clear the card path after abnormal operation. Card condition should still be checked before deployment, as excessive card deformation may cause transport jams.
What should be considered during maintenance?
Keep the card path clean and free from oil. Power off the unit before maintenance and avoid hot-plugging connectors.
