This tool is still under development, with the end-goal of achieving complete command-line control of all functions offered by the MSR device. This tool should work with any device that uses MSR206 firmware, including the following:
CARD DEVICE MSR605X SERIAL
Even if you're working with a serial device, taking a non-serial approach will force you to gain a deeper understanding of how USB interactions work. Buy MSR605X USB Card Reader Writer Mag Swipe 3-Track Compatible w/ MSR206 MSR605 MSR606 online at an affordable price. Hopefully, this repository will act as both a tool, and a reference for those attempting to interface HID devices.

It offers HID-based control of any MSR device sporting MSR206 firmware.
CARD DEVICE MSR605X DRIVER
This tool is essentially a command-line driver for MSR devices.
CARD DEVICE MSR605X MANUAL
Information on the device's firmware was found in the programming manual that is included in this repository.
