Card reader licensing
When the card reader is properly installed and configured, users can use a card to authenticate by using the following workflow:
-
The user swipes the card.
-
The VID/PID information is sent from the device to Equitrac or Output Manager.
-
Equitrac or Output Manager validates the card license.
Third-party card readers must be licensed through Equitrac or Output Manager. If a third-party card reader is not licensed, it will not function. Tungsten card readers do not need a license.
