General Description
The DILETTA compact keyboards are fitted with an integrated 4 track magnetic swipe reader and dual illumination OCR reader. The MSR reader performs bidirectional reading of ticket and boarding pass coupons and ISO encoded credit card data.

The ergonomically designed document channel is fitted with a smooth wear-resistant stainless steel guide and achieves reliable reading at fast and slow swipe speeds.
