Driver's License Scanners

Getting Started Overview Information Guide -> Scanners -> Driver's License Scanners

There are two approaches for capturing Driver's License information that are compatible with SRM Software.

Driver's License Data Capture: There are several options for reading the data on the Driver's License.
 Refer to Driver's License Data Scanners for details on the Mag-Stripe swipe and Barcode scans.

•Mag-Stripe Scan
 This scanner reads the magnetic stripe when the card is swiped and retrieves the information stored on the tracks.

•1 & 2-Dimensional Barcode Scan
 This process uses a barcode scanner to captures the same information as the Mag-Stripe Scan, but reads one of two types barcodes on the back of the license.
 The top barcode is usually the 1-dimensional scan and the bottom barcode is the 2-dimensional scan that can be read by a programmed scanner.
 Only the bottom 2-Dimensional scan is compatible with Web App or Open Client sessions

Note: If the license has both the 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional barcode stripes, it is the 1-dimensional stripe that is automatically read first, so when scanning the 2-dimensional barcode, cover a portion of the 1-dimensional barcode stripe with your finger to force the scanner to read the 2-dimensional barcode.

Refer to Driver License Scanning from the "Help" library for details on setting up and using Driver's Licence scanning with SRM.

License Image Capture This process scans the image on the front of the card, retrieving the picture and address information as outlined in Driver's License ID Image Scanners.
 The Use IDScan Image Capture option can be activated by division from the Divisional Contract Parameters.

Note: Only the 2-Dimensional Barcode Scanner is compatible with Web App or Open Client sessions.
