GEMPLUS GAM326 MEMORY CARD CONTROL

This section defines the commands needed to control the Gemplus GAM326 card type. There
may be other cards that are similar to the GAM326, and this device may support some of them.
It is assumed that the user has access to the manufacturer’s specifications for this type of card.

This section will address the memory available on the card as a file. For compatibility of
terminology with ISO 7816-4, we will assume that the memory is in an “implicitly selected” file
after we power up the card.

With the addition of the GAM326 support come properties the user may need access to.
