PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Availability of the instrument for use is indicated on the dot matrix liquid crystal display as well as by illuminating amber colour lamp on the instrument.
When a smart card is fully inserted into the card insertion slot provided on the front face, a signal is generated from the card seat switch to instruct the central processing unit to process the data.
The instrument reads the data stored in the card & transmit it to automation system on serial link. Until the automation system processes the data received, a message is displayed on LCD display prompting the operator to wait.
If the data stored in the card memory is validated by the system, MINI TISI informs the operator by displaying the message on the display as well as by switching the Amber light to Green. Else if the data is rejected by the system, Red light is switched on.
MINI TISI can also be used for data entry of PIN ( Personnel Identification Number ) by employing its 16 keys numeric membrane key pad. The number is communicated to the automation system on serial link validation.
