<p>
To get feedback as early as possible, here's a small tutorial how to get going with SPR532 and pinpad. There are other <a class="wiki" href="PinpadReaders.html" shape="rect">PinpadReaders</a> and other interfaces but the given interface makes use of <a class="ext-link" href="http://www.pcscworkgroup.com/specifications/overview.php" shape="rect"><span class="icon"> </span>PC/SC version 2.0 spec</a> Part 10.
</p>
<p>
Things you need to try it out:
</p>
<ul><li>get yourself a SPR532 reader from www.scmmicro.com
</li><li>upgrade the firmware to the latest (at least 5.05) version using stuff from here: <a class="ext-link" href="http://www.scmmicro.com/support/pcs_downloads.html?PID=70&s1=6&s2" shape="rect"><span class="icon"> </span>http://www.scmmicro.com/support/pcs_downloads.html?PID=70&s1=6&s2</a>
<ul><li>Note that this upgrade will make your reader's pinpad unusable under Windows if your application only supports the older and broken firmware!
</li></ul></li><li>install <a class="ext-link" href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pcsclite/" shape="rect"><span class="icon"> </span>pcsc-lite</a> (version 1.3.3 or later)
</li><li>install <a class="ext-link" href="http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid.html" shape="rect"><span class="icon"> </span>ccid</a> driver (version 1.2.1 or later)
</li><li>install the latest opensc trunk
<ul><li>After installation, make sure you have opensc.conf in the location told by configure and make sure that enable_pinpad is set to 'true'
</li></ul></li></ul><p>
Notes:
</p>
<ul><li>the whole topic is hairy - see discussions on muscle and opensc-devel mailinglist:

What you can do:
</p>
<ol><li>test and provide feedback
</li><li>help to argue how things should look like in different places and how we shall solve some issues - see <a class="wiki" href="DesignDiscussion.html" shape="rect">DesignDiscussion</a>
</li></ol><p>
Known issues:
</p>
<ol><li>It is known to work with SPR532 under Linux as well as Windows XP (latest firmware and PCSC drivers, at least for pin verification)
</li><li>Support for pinpad operations in general might lag behind your needs. Patches most welcome :)
</li><li>It should work with many newer pinpad readers that provide the right driver on Windows, but currently only SPR 532 has been tested. If you have a nice reader on windows, try out the latest SCB to see it it works!
</li></ol><p>
Open questions:
</p>
<ol><li>SCM seems to also offer a CCID driver for LINUX: <a class="ext-link" href="http://www.scmmicro.com/support/pcs_product_drivers.html" shape="rect"><span class="icon"> </span>http://www.scmmicro.com/support/pcs_product_drivers.html</a> Has anyone tested it? Does it work? martin: the usual 'binary only' whining applies. Also, there should be no difference from the pcsc v2 part 10 point of view. (I tried SCMs CCID-"driver" on april 3rd 2007 - it's just a link to Ludovics site!!)
