Important Note: When programming any of the following sequences, do not use the Numeric Keypad unless specified.

Step 1: Close all programs and open an editor such as Notepad or go to a DOS Prompt
Step 2: Enter program mode by holding down the following six key combination until you hear two beeps and ***MENU ENTRY*** is displayed in your editor. Ctrl (left) ,Shift (left), Alt(left), Ctrl (right), Shift (right), Alt (right)
Step 3: Program the Magnetic Stripe Reader

My bad, I didn't read your post close enough. I'm not familiar enough with MSPOS to know if they will work with it.
