USB Smart Card reader

I want to interface with a USB smart card reader to make a cash card system. I'm not going to be writing any code that goes on the smart card itself, just code that runs on a PC. Is the Card SDK what I'm looking for or am I way off base? If it isn't, where should I be looking?

You can then use the javax.smartcardio package to communicate with a PC/SC smart card device. You should able to find examples online. You only need the JCDK if you plan to develop on card code.

  • Broadcom USB Smart Card reader not working

    After upgrading my Vista Business SP2 (32-bit) to Windows 7 Ultimate RC (32-bit) my Broadcom USB smart card reader does not work any longer (Dell Latitude E6400 with built in smart card reader).
    The newest available driver from dell support was already tested (Broadcom, driver date 09/23/2008, version 1.0.0.1, digitally signed WHQL, released by dell in March 09), but the device can not start (Error code 10) with Windows 7.
    With the Microsoft WUDF Driver (Usbccid, driver date 06/21/2006, version 6.1.7100.0) the device starts but whenever I insert my smart card an additional device is detected (other device - smart card) but no driver found - Error message is: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28).
    What else can I try to get this reader working again (with vista sp2 the smart card reader was working fine with the broadcom driver)?

    I have also an USB card reader that works fine on XP PCs but Win7 does not recognise it, can msft make a sd reader driver that works pls.
    Hi
    Sorry, but the way the industry works is that Microsoft develops Windows and Hardware manufacturers develop drivers for their products. Microsoft does maintain a complete division (MSDN) that is dedicated to assisting hardware and software manufacturers in developing their products for compatibility with Windows.
    All of the drivers that are contained on the Windows installation disk and on Windows Update are placed there by the manufacturers of the devices. This is a service that Microsoft provides to help these manufacturers to distribute their drivers.
    What you can do.
    1. Check with the computer manufacturer for updated drivers for that device. This is your best source, since the computer manufacturer builds, tests, and sometimes develops their own, custom drivers to work with the hardware on their PCs.
    2. Try to determine the name and manufacturer of the device using Device Manager and MSInfo32. Once this information is found, try to find that manufacturers website and look for the latest compatible drivers.
    3. Check to see if there are any users forums on the PC manufacturers or device manufacturers websites. Ask there about any known issues with this particular hardware device or if the device is no longer supported.
    4. If the drivers are found but are only available for previous versions of Windows, install the drivers using the Windows Compatibility Mode. HOW TO: Install a Hardware Device Driver using Compatibility Mode
    Right now, we are in a unique situation since we are using an operating system that is still in the pre-release phase. Many hardware/software manufacturers will be ofrficially supporting their products for Windows 7 until after the General Availability date of October 22, 2009.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank You for using Windows 7

  • ACR122U smart card reader not recognized after reboot...

    I am new to POS Windows and have been working with wondows for ever. I was using ACR 122u contactless usb smart card reader with windows XP and communicating with it using java with no problems. Then our I changed the OS to windows Pos ready 2009 and we found out that USB card reader has to be unplugged and plugged back in after rebooting the computer. other than the OS everything else is identicle (driver, reader, java program, ect..). Can any one tell me what could cause this problem and what I can do to solve this.
    I have cheked the device manager and under USB controllers it says that it is unrecognized deivice..I tried changing the reader, changing the port and(actually the reader is pluged in to a linksys external usb hub, but changing this to a internal port did not make any difference)  tried chagning some settings in control panel.
    1. I checked the power option of the root usb hub.
    2. Changed the driver.cab to a normal driver.cab obtained from the normal xp version. Uninstall the driver and reinstall it.
    So far this hasnt been working.
    I hope someone could help me with this.
    ~Tharanga

    After extensive tests with Win 7 Embedded and ACR122U, I can confirm the same problem. It seems that reader firmware hangs and the only way to recover is to unplug and plug again the reader. We shall repeat the tests with readers from other manufacturers.
    For the tests, we use a Win7 Embedded Standard PC with an ACR122U connected. We installed and configured the ACS Monitor program to start automatically with windows. We made a small utility to restart the PC every minute and we placed it on the Startup directory.
    Within the first 5-10 reboots, the reader fails and the ACS monitor program shows " No reader connected" and no reaction from the reader. If we shall unplug and plug the reader again to the USB port everything works fine again.

  • Access to smart card reader on Win 8.1 RDP Host

    Hi,
    I have a customer that has a couple of Windows 8.1 Pro computers, that has a smart card reader in the local keyboard.
    Until a few months ago, they could RDP to the desktop computer from a RDP client such as another Windows PC, a Mac or a mobile device.
    The problem is now that when accessing the desktop computer (with the smart card reader keyboard) from a RDP client, the smart card reader is not available in the RDP session anymore. This prevents them from logging on to an application in the network that
    requires their smart card.
    Can someone perhaps point me in a direction where this can be solved, either with the MS RDP host or with some 3rd party RDP host applications?
    (Teamviewer or similar remote support applications works, but that is not what the customer want...)
    Since it worked like a charm up until 2-3 months ago, there must have been some update to Win 8.1 that prevents this by default?
    Thanks in advance,
    /Mikael Forslund

    Hi Mikael Forslund,
    I am supposing you attempted to use smart card reader connected directly to Remote Desktop terminal. Basically your RDP session should redirected smart card reader to the client side and will not see readers connected to the host side
    because enable Safety equipment such like smart card reader will cause highly insecure and that is not by design.
    We suggest using smart card reader on local RDP client for your issue.
    “The reverse is also true; if you RDP into a session from the start you will never see any local smartcard readers as Winscard will detect it’s running in an RDP session and no calls to Winscard will ever reach the local PC/SC layer –
    everything will be redirected to the connecting client.”

  • Smart Card Reader 2 on Windows 8

    I have a need to use a smart card to log into my work laptop.  Unfortunately, my laptop does not have a built-in smart card reader and I'd like to avoid using an external USB smart card reader if possible.  For this reason, I purchased a Blackberry Smart Card Reader 2, which from what I could find online, should be able to provide the same functionality as an external USB smart card reader.
    I installed the software and rebooted the computer.  However, when I try and discover the Smart Card Reader (SCR) the laptop seems to see the SCR, but then the connection window closes and I never get the chance to enter the PIN.  Reviewing the eventlogs and system processes, I can see that BlackberrySCRService.exe process which is running as a service quits after the device is discovered.
    I've tried running the Windows compatibility tool on the process which suggested running in XP compatibility mode, but that did not help.  Can somebody tell me how I can use my Blackberry SCR 2 on my Windows 8 laptop?  Thanks in advance.

    hello, I don't have any knowledge about that reader.
    You can find the manual here:
    http://docs.blackberry.com/en/admin/subcategories/​?userType=2&category=BlackBerry+Smart+Card+Reader
    My personal understanding is that this reader is not compatible with Windows 7 and Windows 8, and only if that BlackBerry is linked to a BES server.
    The search box on top-right of this page is your true friend, and the public Knowledge Base too:

  • Token and smart card reader are not detected on Mavericks if not plugged on a USB port during system boot

    Well, both token and smart card reader are not detected on OS X 10.9 if not plugged on a USB port during system boot. So, if I am already working within the system and need to use my certificates I have to plug the token or smart card reader on a USB port and restart Mavericks.
    Token is a GD Starsign and Smart Card Reader is a SCR3310 v2.
    Thoughts?

    SCS is a very good app, since I've read that Apple has discontinued support for PC/SC interfaces after the release of Mountain Lion.
    (My previous installation was a Mavericks upgrade from Lion)
    However, I don't know what and how to debug using Smart Card Services. Do you know any commands to use?
    Apparently, the SC reader reports no issues: the LED is blinking blue when no smart card is present and becomes fixed blue when a smart card is inserted – according to the manuals, this shows that there is correct communication between the OS and the CCID reader.
    I don't know what to do; I'm beginning to hypothesize it's a digital signer issue. In fact, my smart card only supports one application called File Protector (by Actalis) to officially sign digital documents. This application seems to have major difficulties in identifying the miniLector EVO.
    The generic and ambiguous internal error comes when I try to manually identify the peripheral.
    Athena CNS is one of the Italian smart cards and is automatically recognized and configured (so it's correct – no doubts about this), while "ACS ACR 38U-CCID 00 00" seems to be the real name of the miniLector.
    (I'm assuming this because System Information also returns that the real manufacturer is ACS... bit4id is a re-brander)
    However, when I click on it and then tap OK, it returns internal error.
    As first attempt, I would try to completely erase&clean File Protector files to try a reinstall. Then, if this still doesn't work, I'd debug using the terminal.
    So:
    - Do you know any applications to 100% clean files created by an installer?
    - Do you have in mind any solutions that I might have forgotten?
    Thanks in advance from an OS X fan!

  • Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader?

    Hi experts,
    Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader? I'm currently working with PC/SC usb token and it requires usb CCID-compliant smart card reader, which seems very inconvenient for my clients and I'm wondering if Java Card has the same issue? (I'm thinking about switching the project to Java Card)
    Any help will be much appreciated!
    Z.Zen

    Hi,
    You will still need to install drivers for some card readers to function correctly. I know some work out of the box on Windows and OS X (10.5+ at least) ships with the pcsclite CCID driver from the Muscle card project. When I view my reader in Windows device manager the Manufacturer is "USB CCID Compliant".
    The only real difference between what you are doing with the USB CCID token and Java Card is that the card and reader are separate in the Java Card option where as the USB token has the reader and chip in one package.

  • MS Remote Desktop and smart card reader

    I have installed MS Remote Desktop Conn. on my iMac and connected a smart card reader via the USB. Although my reader energizes when the computer is on, the computer doesn't seem to recognize the reader. When I insert a CAC card into the reader and try to log in remotely, I continue to get a "username/password" box instead of the CAC PIN number. Do I need to install some kind of smart card driver or does Apple already have it? I'm at a loss as to how to fix this.

    I was able to get rdesktop 1.6.0 to install on my Mac and I was able to get CAC log-in to work.
    However, the installation is a little tricky. I downloaded rdesktop 1.6.0 from this link:
    <<http://www.rdesktop.org>>
    My instructions for installation:
    1. Make sure Xcode Tools is installed on your computer. It should be on your OS X install disk.
    2. Find out where your X11 libraries are located:
    -From the Finder menu, selct "Go" >> "Go to Folder..."
    -Type (without the quotes) "/usr/X11", and click "Go"
    You should see a bunch of folders. Make sure the "include" and "lib" folders are there. Otherwise you need to find out where the X11 "include" and "lib" folders are located on your computer.
    3. Download rdesktop and place the (unarchived) rdesktop-1.6.0 folder on your Desktop
    4. Open the X11 application (should be in your Utilities folder)
    5. In the X11 window type the following (without the quotes):
    "cd Desktop/rdesktop-1.6.0 && ./configure --enable-smartcard -x-includes=/usr/X11/include -x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib && make && sudo make install"
    4. Hit enter. When prompted, enter your administrator password and hit enter.
    rdesktop should now be installed in the following folder:
    /usr/local/bin
    So, to launch rdesktop with smartcard log in enabled, open the X11 application (or Terminal application) and type the following (without the quotes, and replace your.server.address with the server address):
    "cd /usr/local/bin && ./rdesktop -r scard your.server.address"
    Hit enter and it should launch a new X11 window that will try to access the remote server where you should be prompted for your PIN.
    To explore more options with rdesktop, open X11 and type the following (without quotes):
    "cd /usr/local/bin && ./rdesktop"
    Hit enter and you should get a list of options available to rdesktop.

  • How to install a smart card reader.

    I am trying to install a smart card reader for work.  There are no prompts when connecting via USB or anything else. 

    There shouldn't be a prompt when you connect an empty card reader.  Insert a memory card into it and it should appear on the Desktop.

  • Smart Card Reader on Leopard

    Has anyone tried to use a Smart Card reader and CAC with Leopard? It worked flawlessly with Tiger, but Leopard doesn't even recognize the reader is attached. I can run Parallels with XP and it immediately recognizes it works with all sites, so I know the reader is good and the USB bus is ok.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Smart card reader refusing to work on OS X Mavericks

    Hi,
    I am the owner of a bit4id Minilector EVO, a little smart card reader (manufactured by ACS Advanced Card Systems) who I use to comply with the digital signatures required by the Italian law.
    There is an official application to use the smart cards; however, I'm experiencing major issues with it.
    Shortly:
    - When I plug the bit4id smart card reader into the USB port of my MBP, the LED shows it is recognized; System Information also tells it has been fully implemented into OS X
    - When I then insert the smart card, no issues are reported and the bit4id LED becomes fixed;
    But, when I start the application to digitally sign, it tries to detect what cryptographic module I'm using. It detects the correct one but reports an «Internal error» halting the process.
    I know there is an implementation of PCSC for OS X called PCSC-Lite, and that there is a terminal command to show if all is working properly.
    Something like pcsc[something] .
    Can you help me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Tyrexionibus

  • Dc7800 "smart card reader not present" during POST

    Hi,
    I've got a dc7800 Small Form Factor system. It was working fine but after a reboot it won't start up normally anymore. The black POST screen appears, RAM testing starts to count up and then I see and error about "system options not set". After less than a second, a blue window in the middle of the screen displays the message "smart card authentication" and below that, "smart card reader not present".
    From a bit of reading it seems like a BIOS problem but I can't figure out how to really reset the CMOS and get things working again. I've tried removing the CMOS jumper and booting the system, removing the power cord and CMOS battery for 10 minutes, and have tried putting a BIOS .bin file on a FAT32 USB key in an attempt to use the BIOS recovery option, none of which has worked.
    Is there a way to do one of the following:
    - force the CMOS defaults to reset and remove the configuration that requires the smart card authentication?
    - force a BIOS recovery, with a key combination or by using a different jumper or jumpers on the motherboard?
    I see various other jumpers and pads on the motherboard like "ROM RCVRY" and the E15 Boot Block Recovery Header but scant information about how these might be used to solve the problem.
    It seems to me that the hardware is fine as it powers up and displays the POST screen. It's like a BIOS setting has been reset to require a smart card, even though there isn't one, nor even a smart card reader, in the system.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    TIA,

    Hi:
    After doing some research on the message, I came across this post.
    I guess your PC has a smart card optional system.
    http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Business-PCs-Compaq-E​lite-Pro/DC7800-smart-card-athentication/m-p/10691​...
    Now, if you can get into the BIOS menus, if you look at the top of page 8, you will see what you need to do in order to enable/disable the smart card reader message.
    http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/S​upportManual/c01162201/c01162201.pdf
    Whatever the problem is, it is a security setting issue, and clearing the CMOS or updating the BIOS will not have any effect on that setting.
    Unfortunately, I have no experience with the security settings or protect tools software on HP business PC's.
    I have a dc7800 (and only use HP business desktops and notebooks), so I am very familiar with all the other aspects of the PC but that one.
    You may want to post your issue on the HP business support forum, business PC section.  Hopefully someone there has experience with turning this feature on or off.
    http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Business-PCs-Compaq-E​lite-Pro/bd-p/bsc-271#.Uk2rcJAo69I
    You may also want to log in and reply to that post, but don't get your hopes up that it will be answered.
    RichS hasn't replied to a post in 3 years. Although someone else may.
    Good luck, and please post back if you find the solution to the problem.

  • T430s Smart Card reader cannot read some cards

    Hi all,
    I have a T430s with a smart card reader.
    Turns out that some cards (including, as it happens, one of my personal cards) the reader can't read. It either does not respond at all, or gives an "unknown card" identification. The very same card, on the very same laptop, using an Athena USB reader, works flawlessly.
    I'd say it's a reader malfunction BUT some other cards are read perfectly by my built-in reader... Why would the reader refuse to read certain cards?
    Any ideas? Anyone seen something like this?
    Thanks for any insight!

    Hey 127kmph,
    If the driver for the media card reader doesn't work,
    I found your computer in the personal system reference and saw you actually have no Smartcard reader. But you do have the 4-1 media card reader. Which is specific to all machine types of the T430s.
    With a little more investigating I found out that
    You have a Ricoh Multi Card Reader on the computer. This reader is able to read SDHC cards, but to get it to work fully you have to update the driver.
    Here is the link to the driver. Which this driver supports XP, Vista, and Windows 7.
