MICR Reader

What is MICR Reader?

The Magnetic Ink Character Recognition is widely used by a banks to process large volumes of cheques and a drafts. Therefore bottom line on all cheques and a drafts has a special characters which printed in a special font called a MICR. The Cheques are put inside a MICR reader. As they enter the reading unit the cheques are pass through the magnetic field which causes the read head to recognize the character of the cheques in a MICR line which uses a magnetic ink character recognition encoding. Therefore in the bottom of the cheque which contains a bank account number, a bank code, a cheque number, a cheque amounts and a control indicator. This are the banking process for filling a check form in a banks.

This technology scans and read directly in to a data collection device similar to a barcode technologies in which a humans are easily reads a MICR characters. Therefore a MICR characters are printed on a documents with one or two MICR fonts by using the magnetizable ink. This characters are read by a MICR reader head. Its waveform is easily identified by the system. The MICR readers is a primary tool for cheque which are utilized across the cheque distribution network at many stages. Finally the Magnetic Ink Character Recognition code is used for a reading the code line from the bank cheque book. The following pictures of a MICR reader and a MICR sample cheque are given below.

There are five categories of interconnecting devices are such as. Router  Hubs  Switches/Bridge  Repeater  BRouter Repeater: Now I am going to tell you the repeater is an electronic device that used to receive and send a signal. It amplifies the signal and noise. It provides transmission of the signal.  HUB (Hyper User Bus):  In this, it used to link several computers in the same network. It based on broadcasting, and it sends the data to all computers and repeats the signal which receives a signal from one port and copies to other port and traffic are high. Bridge / Switch:  In this, we can see the interconnecting devices which can divide a single network into two or more segment are called Bridge / Switch.  It has multiple ports like 2, 4, 16, and 32. The Switch main...

Virtual Private Network (VPN)

  What is Virtual Private Network (VPN)? A virtual private network (VPN) is a secure connection between two private networks over a public network (in other words, over the Internet). All the data that flows over the VPN is encrypted. So anyone who steals packets from the VPN will find them unintelligible; only the parties on either end of the VPN are able to decrypt the packets. VPN connections are often called tunnels. Because they provide an isolated pathway from one point to another through the Internet. The only way to gain meaningful access to a VPN tunnel is at either end. Example for VPN Connections VPNs are used for There are two common uses for VPNs: To provide remote workers with secure access to your company network: To do that, you set up a VPN on the router, and then provide your remote workers with the credentials necessary to access the VPN. The remote workers can run a software VPN client on their home computers or laptops to connec...
