Can anybody tell me, what´s beyond "CT_Init"?The initialization of the serial port is no problem (baudrate,parity etc.).But what comes next? Which bytes do I send over the serial port to get a response?Do I have to initialize the card terminal? How does it work?Is a Resynch-request enough? What are the bytes for this command?I don´t want to use any dll, but a java package would do it.Perhaps the CT-Init is specific to the manufacturer?Currently we are using the Towitoko-Kartenzwerg as a ChipReader.I don´t have any experience in programming serial interfaces, I´m just beginning. Thanx in advance. - Udo, Baseline GbRemail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm currently working on Towitoko Linux driver. Maybe you wolud like to take a look at ftp://apolonio.atos-ods.es/pub/musclecard/
There are several files:
- I120E.PDF : documentation from Towitoko support about the low-level comunication protocol for Chipdrives and Kartenzwerg
- towitoko.tar.gz: Modified sources of David's musclecard-1.6 and xcard-1.0 to adapt them to Towitoko readers
First I'm working on the DBIISO interface used by xcard. When I get this to work I will continue with the CT-API.
One more thing. If you are using Kartenzwerg please make sure you have a modern one. There are some old Kartenzewrg readers that works with a distinct comunication protocol, that Towitoko does´t want to make public and won't be supported in the future.
Thanks,
Carlos Prados.
