I am attempting to collect data from a card reader using serin.  When I attach the card reader device to puTTY or to the included 9600 terminal, I swipe the card and I get the exact data I am looking for.  When I attach the card reader to the COM1 rX and swipe the card, I get a different output. The data that comes over is repeatable and unique to the card that is swiped, but does not correlate to the actual output of the card reader.

Have you set the baud rate to 9600 (The default is 115200)?

What is the voltage levels coming from the card reader?
