Bar Code Readers
Overview
Corby Bar Code Readers will only work with Bar Code Cards that use CODE 39 symbology. The reader will
process the first ten digits as the user code. The first five digits must be 00000. The second set of digits (five)
is the user code which can be 00000 to 99999. Corby cards 4151 are programmed with the above
specifications.
This is an infrared reader. It is possible to read Cards that have an opaque polyester film covering the Bar
Code. This film is used to protect the Bar Code from damage and prevents duplication through copying.
Corby Cards Model 4151 have this protective film. Cards must be printed using a carbon based ink.
This weatherproof reader is configured to produce a magnetic card type Clock & Data output in ABA track II
format.
Bar Code Reader Styles
Corby Bar Code Readers are available in an indoor/outdoor swipe, surface mount version (black). The reader
is equipped with a wire harness for all connections.

It is also possible to read Code 39 Bar Code cards with any 16 digit code. This allows the use of existing
cards. Part #2014 must be activated for 16 digit code formats.
Bar Code Reader Wire Runs
These Readers require a minimum of five wires with shield. Bar Code Readers are limited to 500 feet from
the System 2. If distances greater than 500 feet are necessary a Line Extender Module (Corby P/N 4056)
must be installed. Wire must be multiconductor (not twisted pairs) and MUST be shielded. If you are using
eight conductor cable, Corby LEDS and RTE switches may use the extra wires. (Refer to Figure 15).
