I receive a "READER ERROR" from MSR905H.

Question

I installed the MSR905H software on Windows 7 and it installed properly. I did a "TEST READ" to ensure that the reader was installed properly and it is working. The correct TRACK 2 data was read successfully. I did a "WRITE" to a blank magnetic card entering TRACK 1 and TRACK 2 data and I got the message: "WRITE CARD". When I went to read the same card on the same reader that I just created it on, I get "READER ERROR" in the TRACK 1 and TRACK 2 boxes respectively. What can I do?

Answer 1

Try uninstalling the MSR905H application and then installing it again. This should fix it. If not, the card was not created correctly and it is corrupted. In this case you will need to create a new one. Since there isn't a user guide available, I suggest you contact the developers and ask for instructions.
