I am trying to integrate a USB magnetic card reader Osayde MSR90 with my web app. However when I read the card it inserts '3' between each letter. i.e. i'm getting c3x3m3i3k3e3 instead of cxmike. I tried it on OSX and Windows machines.

Does anybody have any experience with this?

  • I can only guess that maybe is some sort of flow control that the two sides dont agree on... IE emulated rs232 with software flow control... just guessing though – Grady Player Jun 28 '17 at 20:44
  • no idea. there are no drivers for it that i could find, and there are no settings for it in the System Settings other than basic keyboard settings. so I can't even adjust any flow controls – ierdna Jun 28 '17 at 20:45
  • it probably presents itself as a keyboard... you can try different keyboard preferences to see if any of them work – Grady Player Jun 28 '17 at 20:47
  • it does. and i tried all 3 of the available options - same result – ierdna Jun 28 '17 at 20:47
  • looks like they have some support options on their warranty page: http://osayde.com/801-2/ – Grady Player Jun 28 '17 at 20:50
  • Yes, but I figured SO community is smarter and respond faster :) – ierdna Jun 28 '17 at 21:00
