Hello ppl, to say it easy im a newbee to this world..
I can read and write C, im very interesseted in the work you guys are doing and i wanna get started to!
My fist project is to rebuild a magnetic cardreader..
But i need help,..
I need to transer chars from the cardreader to my computer, at the keyboards port or via the com port i actually dont mind..
First I tryed finding some documentations on my modules, and the serial com port, it worked fine, and i fould a way to connect the wires from my cardreader to my computers com port.. but nothing happend, even thoug i used programs to listen the port, and stuff..
Now ive realised that there is more to it then simply just connecting those wires.. and ive turned to you in a desperet call for help..
In order to help me i've collected some pictures and some names and numbers..
my cardreader was "found" in a securaty keypad.. the type they use at industrial doors, like verifications points..
well, ive detached this reader and it seams to have 5 wires, "brown, red, orange, yellow and green"..
At the back of this reader is typed:
OMRON
3S4YR-HSR
card reader
volts: 5vdc
lot no.
I've also taken some pictures to view you guys what im actualy talking about.:
Now as you see on the images, i've got the keypad to, maby i could use that for components or not, i don't know..
I'we been able to google up a documentation file for this card reader.. Im just sorry that im not that much in to development of these dimentions to figure out the diagram,,
