How To Clean A Chip Card Reader

Posted on December 10, 2022May 5, 2023 by Adminsoft

How to clean a chip card reader?

What are the precautions for the use of IC card readers 1. Plug-in card holder

1. For the plug-in card holder, care should be taken to prevent the card from being inserted too hard. Too much force will damage the in-position switch of the card holder, and it will also damage the card to a certain extent.

2. Pay attention to keep the card clean. If the chip of the card is not clean, not only the card will not work normally, but also the contact point of the card holder will be polluted.

3. It is very important to operate after the card is in place. If the reader powers on the card under unstable conditions, it may cause damage to the card.

4. After the operation of the card in the plug-in card holder is completed, the application program should first send a command to the reader to power off the card, and then pull out the card after power off. Pulling out the card without power off may cause damage to the card.

2. Push-push deck

1. The push-push card holder adopts the push-in card, and the card will pop out when the card is pushed in again when it is taken out. This structure reduces the friction between the card and the electric shock, and has certain advantages in protecting the card. But it can also damage the card if not used correctly.

2. The most common error is that when taking out the card, instead of pushing it in again to make the card pop up automatically, and directly pulling the card out, this situation will seriously damage the card and the card holder.

3. Pay attention to keep the card clean. The card holder of any structure will eventually be in close contact with the chip of the card, so if the chip of the card is not clean, it will pollute the contacts of any kind of card holder.

3. The environment and method of using the IC card

Proper storage and correct use of cardholders are the most economical and effective means to prolong the service life and reliability of IC cards. Proper storage, no random bending, no random contact with the contacts, no random access to strong static electricity environment, pay attention to keep the card surface clean, etc., will help to improve the reliability of the IC card and prolong its service life.

4. Use of cleaning card

The cleaning card is a cleaning measure used after the reader has been used for a period of time and the contacts of the deck are polluted. The method of using the cleaning card is: insert the cleaning card into the reader-writer when the power is cut off, and then clean the electric contact of the deck after inserting it back and forth.
