STATE CHART - NOTES Continued:
- Michigan encodes their driver’s licenses using magnetic stripe. MI encodes a limited amount of data that allows our Age Verifier to perform all necessary validation checks, and create a log to prove patrons IDs were carded. The name and address are not encoded. Our Model 2000S-800 CAN read the front of the ID, perform age verification or IDAutoFill, and capture the name and address. This holds true for all State IDs.
- Illinois encrypts part of their PDF-417 bar code label. In addition to the basic LOG data, the age verifier also captures and stores the cardholder’s Name. No other personal data is stored in the LOG File or the ALL File. To capture the Name, you must configure the Age Verifier's Data Storage to "ALL". If you want to capture the address you must use our Model 2000S-800.
- Alaska has recently started encoding driver’s licenses using the PDF-417 barcode label. It will be a period of time before all licenses will be ‘readable’.
- Florida now issues Driver's Licenses with PDF-417 Barcode & Magnetic Stripe encoding.
- The magnetic stripe on the Missouri Driver’s Licenses is not encoded. The newer Missouri Driver’s License has a readable PDF-417 Barcode encoded.
- Georgia’s current Driver’s License ‘front side’ can only be read using our Model 2000S-800.
- Minnesota’s newest DLs PDF-417 Barcode data does not include an Expiration Date, or address. The magstripe does. For more secure age verification, we recommend you scan the barcode. You can scan the DLs magstripe (“If the model has a magstripe reader”) to verify, and capture the age, expiration date, name, address, and other useful information. If you need the address, but not age verification, then our Model 2000S-800 may be appropriate.
- Alabama’s DL barcode data encoding includes Name, Street Address, City, and State. The new AL driver's license does not include the zip code. Our 2000S-800 may be appropriate.

AGE VERIFIER SOFTWARE PRODUCT SUMMARY OPTIONAL PURCHASE OF PCAV.exe WINDOWS® - BASED PC PROGRAM:
TERMS OF USE:
When you purchase one of our Age Verifiers for direct attachment to a PC, we provide our Windows® - Based PC-Resident Software Program. Our program accepts data from 'Three-Track Magnetic Stripe Card Readers and PDF-417 Barcode Imagers or CCDs. Your hardware should be capable of adequately reading the approximately 350 different formats of Driver's Licenses/IDs in the US and Canada, as well as other types of cards and coupons.
PCAV.exe performs the Age Verification functions and stores the data in a variety of files for other uses.
If you already have a 3-Track Magnetic Stripe Reader and/or a PDF-417 Bar Code Imager or CCD, and you believe they can read all magstripe and barcode data well, we offer our PCAV.exe Program for installation on your PC.
Note: The PC must be running under Microsoft® Windows® 98 OS or higher.
This program cannot be successfully copied. Each copy must be serialized and registered by B & C Data Systems, Inc. within 30 days of installation.
At the end of 30 days, if not registered, the program will cease to function. We do not offer extensions to this term.
We have thoroughly tested all major manufacture's scanners and readers with our Software. Based on our extensive testing, we highly recommend the Age Verification Products we offer.
If, in your opinion, you believe the Three-Track Magnetic Stripe Card Readers and/or PDF-417 Barcode Scanners you use read all formats well, we suggest you purchase our software for testing. We also suggest you not register the software until you are certain your hardware performs well. *Note: We do not offer refunds on registered software.
If you find your readers do not read well enough, and you do not want to purchase our hardware, simply let your software copy's thirty-day registration period lapse and we will refund your cost. Alternatively, simply order one of our scanners or readers for delivery within this 30-Day period, test the system, and if it reads to your satisfaction, and then contact us to register your software. Remember, regardless whether you purchase any of our PC Model Age Verifiers, which include the PCAV.exe Software, or you purchase our Software only, once it's registered we do not offer refunds on the hardware or software.
