- the insertion outlet 5 is closed with the member 22.
- the card conveying path is closed by the shutter member 7. In this case, the card reader 1 notifies the host device that an abnormality has occurred.
- the light emitting element 24 is an LED, it is preferable to pulse the light emitting element 24 at arbitrary intervals when the card 2 is not being traded. In this case, since it is possible to flow a current equal to or higher than the rated value to the light emitting element 24, the amount of light emitted from the light emitting element 24 can be increased.
