A table listing the possible values of the status byte and the corresponding
meaning is given in Appendix B.2.

Data Length

Number of subsequent data bytes, and is encoded in 2 bytes. The first byte
(MSB) and second byte (LSB) represent data length N.

Data

Data contents of the command.

For a READ_DATA command, for example, the data bytes would contain the
contents of the memory addresses read from the card. The data bytes can
represent values read from the card and/or status information.

Card Status Message

When a card is being inserted into the reader or an inserted card is being removed from the reader
while the reader is idle, i.e., not executing a command, the reader transmits a Card Status Message to
notify the host computer of the change in the card insertion status.

The Card Status Messages have the following structure and contents:

Card Status Message for Card Insertion

Card Status Message for Card Removal

A card status message is transmitted only once for every card insertion or removal event. The reader
does not expect an acknowledge signal from the computer. After transmitting a status message, the
reader waits for the next command from the computer.

Note: Card status messages are sent from AET65 to the host computer through INTERRUPT IN
endpoint.
