Products
Products is the directory of MagTek reader hubs. Find your device to reach its quickstart, its firmware, downloads, and compliance, and its links into the shared guides and command reference and other support materials.
Because the DynaFamily readers share one MMS command set, most of what you build is portable across them — each device's hub points you into that shared content and calls out only what's specific to that reader. Not sure which one you need? Start with Pick your device to compare them, or the DynaFamily Command Matrix to confirm which commands a reader supports.
