AX3000 - User's Manual
This function is designed for PC/SC-compliant smartcard readers. Two readers
are supported by the Axel terminal:
- CCID readers,
- Aladdin eToken.
Note: Some "non-PC/SC" readers are also supported. This is achieved with the
RDP/ICA COM port redirection (or by the tty protocol for Unix/Linux). In this
case RS232 devices or USB-RS232 devices must be used (see Chapter 3.4.7).
For the PC/SC devices, a "reader store" is maintained by the terminal. This
store is accessed by the [Configuration]-[Advanced]-[Other]-[Smartcard
Readers] menu:
A reader is automatically added to the store when being connected for the first
time. Up to four readers can be stored. To consult or change reader
characteristics select the entry and press <Space>. A dialog box as shown is
displayed:
Smartcard reader parameters are:
- Reader ID: this value can't be modified. It's composed by the
"Manufacturer ID" and "Product ID".
- Vendor Name: character string sent back by the terminal when a
SCardGetAttrib (option SCARD_ATTR_VENDOR_NAME) command is
issued by a Windows PC/SC application.
