I plug in the reader. Then I do

sudo rmmod pn533_usb
sudo rmmod pn533
pcsc_scan

And it sees my reader! It sees changes with card state and so on. This works great. I can restart pcsc_scan and it will still see my reader. BUT if I replug my reader, after that pcsc_scan is just waiting for a reader. I thought, it might be that kernel restarts pn533 mods, so I removed them again, but it didn't work. It could find my reader again only after reboot...

I'm using Linux Mint 19, ACR122U reader.

Hi,

I am having an issue with a reader ACR122u connected to a Raspberry (SO Raspbian).

When I reboot the system with the reader connected, pcsc_scan is not able to find the reader.
If I disconnect and reconnect the USB driver, I am able to find and use the reader.

What could be the issue?

Thank you,
Enrico

For the latest pcsc_scan.c file, I add code at 528 line to check the SCardGetStatusChange return value for the PNP notification, but unfortunately the return value is SCARD_E_TIMEOUT but not SCARD_S_SUCCESS. (my local pcsc-lite version is 1.8.23 and ubuntu Linux)

_rgReaderStates[0].szReader = "\\?PnP?\Notification";
rgReaderStates[0].dwCurrentState = SCARD_STATE_UNAWARE;

rv = SCardGetStatusChange(hContext, 0, rgReaderStates, 1);
printf("SCardGetStatusChange for PNP notification result = %lu\n", rv)_

I think it should be SCARD_S_SUCCESS but not this SCARD_E_TIMEOUT value. Do you know why and do you have the plan to fix this issue?

Great work you're doing on this project. A few updates to this ATR (which I cannot submit online because there's already an entry):

1. Documentation is now at https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/AT88SC1616C#document-table . The atmel.com link is defunct.
2. Rexall in Canada no longer uses these cards, so you can safely delete the last two lines and give it some generic identifier.

Merci!

Hi.
I have Compunicate paytv smart card.
It's detected fine.

Is this a pcsc-tools problem or is this normal and need to send resets from a program that works with pcscd?

I'm not sure for the reason, but file LICENCE is not present into the tar.bz2 archive available from the site. The file is present into the repository and into the tar.gz archives downloaded from Releases section.

When I try to use scriptor I have an error "Can't allocate Chipcard::PCSC::Card object: Card is unpowered."

The card is recognized by my reader and it works with nfc-pcsc

How can I fix this issue?

In the past, i.e. about a year ago and with an older phone and Android version, the reader worked fine with GnuPG. Now I cannot get it to work, even on the old phone. Possibly with Android Pie something has changed.

There is a specific card I've been using for a long time and has been working flawlessly. A few months ago a regression happened (possibly as a result of a version upgrade?) and the card stopped working.

pcsc_scan detects the card just fine:

Hello , thank you for making these tools available! I am trying to test these tools against the following hardware :

• ACR38U Reader
• SIM cards ISO 7816-3 compliant

Getting always an error. Ex:
GScriptor:

Beginning script execution...

Sending: A0 A4 00 00 02 3F 00 

Errors During Script Execution: Transaction failed.
Script was executed without error.

Noting that all tools connected successfuly to the reader and performed reset command successfully returning the ATR .

I tried sending the same Apdu from a Java application is throwing :
PCSCException: scard_e_not_transacted. This maybe related to the current issue

	Portuguese Blood Donator National Card (HealthCare)
	Skatteverkets identitetskort för folkbokförda i Sverige (utfärdade fr.o.m. september 2017) med AB Svenska Pass e-legitimation
	https://skatteverket.se/privat/folkbokforing/idkort/elegitimationpaidkortet.4.3810a01c150939e893f8169.html

Is the same card ID used for Portuguese Blood Donators or has there been a copy&paste error here?

The information was added in 741f3c1 and 3f7c5ce. 741f3c1 also added information on another Swedish e-id which, to my knowledge, does not exist, and has not existed. I tried googling, in Swedish, for information on such a card but came up with zero hits.

So, is it possible that there's been a mix-up in the list here?

I've got a couple card that are misrecognized (e.g.: my Maestro gets recognized as a MasterCard blue)
I tried using the website https://smartcard-atr.apdu.fr/ but I see no "submit correction" button

Would it be safe to write the ATRs here or can they contain private information?

I'm using UART PN532. pcsc_scan detects visa, master cards and also smart watch (fitbit charge 4) payment card. But if fails to detect card associated with my smart phone. Does pcsc support ISO/IEC 14443-4B ?

Bellow nfc-poll output of detected phone nfc.

$ nfc-poll 
nfc-poll uses libnfc libnfc-1.8.0-63-g3df7f25

p.s. there are numbers under **

Hey pcsc_scan says unresponsive card but i have only one interface. how i make my card responsive ?
Here is the pcsc_scan output:

Hello. Observations:

• http://ludovic.(...) | I supposed that the URL was missing the s in the protocol section. Wrong i was since the site is indeed served non-securely. It would be worth opting for an up-to-date protected connection, hence that involves version 1.3 of TLS.; Let's Encrypt will do in this regard if you ever decide to opt for its use.
• "and scriptor sends (...)" | We can note that the whole statement is valid in respect to gscriptor. Thus it would be worth mentioning it as part of the description.

I've tried to submit a Spanish ING DIRECT MasterCard info at http://smartcard-atr.appspot.com/parse?ATR=3B8C8001504F3BF0CD0000000080817164, only to find I had to log in my Google account and to allow an unnamed application to access my account information. I can't send the data without allowing this permission, which I won't do.

Is there any other way to send the info? If there are, say it in the pcsc_scan output, please.

Thanks.

Hello Ludovic, first I would like to thank you for this tool, I am using it on Slackware to use my ID card reader for e-goverment services. The version I did build for Slackware 14.2 is 1.4.27, but failed on first build, because of missing Changelog file. I added one from 1.5.2 version and all went well. There is also seccond issue, the folder name in packed source is doubled "pcsc-tools-pcsc-tools-1.4.27" not a big deal for me, but all the distribution related automatic scripts for building the package expect correct folder name. Attached is corrected src. Hope I did it in correct way, I use GitHub for first time and I am not a developer or programmer, just linux user.

Hi. I scanned with your program pcsc_scan smart cards that I had at home and found that the cards issued by Alfa-bank Russia Visa - have ATR: 3B 68 00 00 00 73 C8 40 13 00 90 00
And also Visa cards from Inecobank from Armenia have
ATR: 3B 68 00 00 99 02 00 D1 03 04 22 01
and Visa bisness ATR: 3B 68 00 00 99 02 00 D1 03 04 22 01
Could you please add them to the database. Thank you in advance for your project.

It would be useful to have a flag on pcsc_scan to disable the spinner please. We run pcsc_scan -nq under systemd to monitor for changes to card state, but would rather not send the spinner to syslog. Thanks for creating such a useful tool!

hi,

I have two SmartCard Reader keyboards and some Siemens SLE 4432/42 card.
One keyboard has ACR38 reader, and the other is DELL KB813.
when I insert the card into the ACR38 keyboard, pcsc_scan worked well and showed like below:

Why pcsc_scan showed 'Unresponsive card' while the Siemens SLE 4432/42 card inserted into DELL KB813 keyboard ? would you mind to help fix it?

Many thanks!

Is it possible to use scriptor, to get the UID of a RFID card?

I can still load my apps to the device, however I can't generate a hardware wallet.

pscs_scan doesn't find a reader.

libccid is the latest version and I ran the commands you suggested to another user for removing a kernel module.

I run the pcsc_scan.exe (http://ludovic.rousseau.free.fr/softwares/pcsc-tools/pcsc_scan.exe) you provided but when I start app, we can see it finally invoke the method SCardGetStatusChangeA instead of SCardGetStatusChangeW at background once the winscard.h SCardGetStatusChange API define:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winscard/nf-winscard-scardgetstatuschangea
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winscard/nf-winscard-scardgetstatuschangew

Here is the note:
The winscard.h header defines SCardGetStatusChange as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.

Then I try to compile the pcsc_scan.exe by my self and specify the UNICODE flag for I don't want to invoke the method SCardGetStatusChangeA at background.

How can I pass the -DUNICODE flag to the compiler during configure the pcsc_scan project?

Thanks for any help.

Hi @LudovicRousseau

Apologies for the rather basic question, but how does one go about using scriptor to read the contents of a serial memory card (the card is using the AT24C02 chip set)?

The card reader is identified fine, and when inserting card it returns "3B 04 49 32 43 2E - German Health Insurance Card" (its not a german health insurance card but rather a member card for a local club).

Hi all,

I'm having troubles with the pcsc_scan function.
I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 TLS and I need retrieve data from a smart card. Since a couple of days the pcsc_scan function returns only the "SCardEstablishContext: Service was stopped" error.
I've altredy tried to uninstall and reinstall all the packeges, start the pcscd.service and the pcscd.socket; all the times I've received the error above.

Does anyone has any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

Running pcsc_scan as normal user results in SCardEstablishContext: RPC transport error.

I am trying to get my SCM Microsystems, Inc. CLOUD 2700 R Smart Card Reader working on Funtoo.

1. lsusb works. It shows the reader.
2. dmsg shows the Reader as well.
3. sudo /etc/init.d/pcscd start is working as well.
4. When I do: pcsc_scan
5. I get: SCardEstablishContext: RPC transport error.
6. pcsc-lite is at version 1.8.25 installed
7. sys-apps/pcsc-tools 1.5.3 installed
8. app-crypt/ccid 1.4.30 installed.
9. I have to do sudo /usr/sbin/pcscd -a -f
10. Then sudo pcsc_scan works perfectly well.
11. Of course I do not want to run my App with Root privileges and I do not want to manually have to start sudo /usr/sbin/pcscd -a -f.
12. This issue is also reported in https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Talk:PCSC-Lite

this is the Funtoo Bug report: https://bugs.funtoo.org/browse/FL-7563

I've upgraded something in my system and after that pcsc_scan cannot find my reader while lsusb sees it. I've tried:

1. Installing ccid (both source version and via apt-get)
2. gdb pcscd (my output is exactly same with this gdb backtrace)
3. modprobe -r pn533 nfc (with pcscd restart)
4. rmmod pn533_usb pn533 (with pcscd restart)
5. Installing other versions of pcsc-tools
   None of this helped. I'm using Linux Mint 19, ACR122U reader.

Thank you for any help

I own a Transisère card from OùRA network.
Its ATS is 3B 6F 00 00 80 5A 0A 01 02 20 03 11 .. .. .. .. 82 90 00, where the .. .. .. .. represents the tag identifier (Converted to decimal, this is the number that is physically printed on the card)

I therefore suggest to change the description here:

to this:

« Oùra ! » Card of region Rhône-Alpes (SNCF, Transisère), Calypso standard

it detects the reader (which is a bcm5880) but not the card on linux, works fine on windows

Hi,

I am a windows developer, so apologies for the eye rolling question.. but how do you compile the tools?

I have tried ./compile , but it requires arguments.. have tried make -f Makefile.am but this just prints.. make: 'Changelog' is up to date.

If I run make -f Makefile.am pcsc_scan, it prints.. `Fatal Error: winscard.h: no such file or directory.

I am running on raspberry pi, just trying to validate that the hardware is working before trying to go any further..

Bonjour Ludovic,
Nous essayons de faire fonctionner un lecteur de cartes vitale sur un serveur Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, nous avons essayé l'outil pcsc scan mais il reste sur "Waiting for the first reader".
J'ai désactivé les modules kernel pn533 et nfc, supprimé le dossier /lib/modules/5.15.0-87-generic/kernel/drivers/nfc/pn533 (et relancé le service pcscd), mais le scan reste toujours en attente de lecteur.
Le lecteur est bien vu en USB par le système :
root@principal:/lib/modules/5.15.0-87-generic/kernel/drivers/nfc# lsusb |grep INGENICO
Bus 001 Device 023: ID 0b00:0090 INGENICO Lecteur SESAM VITALE

Une idée de votre côté ?

Cordialement.

Xavier

I just built a PC with a DVB-S/S2 tuner and USB card reader. The aim is to have KODI + TVHEADEND + OSCAM + SKY Brasil legit card.

The issue is that OSCAM is not recognizing the system of the card.

OSCAM's log and afterwards PCSC (some digits were changed for "x").

As far I could understand, my card (SKY Brasil - Videoguard) is not being recognized either by OSCAM or PCSC... Is this understanding correct? Anybody could help overcoming this issue?

Thank you very much !

Hello

I'm having some issues with pcsc_scan not working with Lisle Standard Card Rack 20. It is basically 20 pcsc-readers attatched to a USB hub. I have tried to edit PCSCLITE_MAX_READERS_CONTEXTS and CCID_DRIVER_MAX_READERS, but when installing from source the readers will not be detected.

I'd like to run pcsc_scan in an Ubuntu based Docker container. Installing the pcsc-tools package requires libgtk3-perl. This, in turn, requires a whole host of other packages — among others — X11 and many other GUI components. This adds approximately 300 MB to the image size.

Is ist possible to compile pcsc_scan without the dependencies to the GUI components?

Thanks!

Note: expressions [v] and [r] were manual additions in order to indicate the strings that are exhibited respectively in violet and red color codes.

The application of red in respect to Scanning present readers... and Waiting for the first reader is not relevant since there is no warning involved to be expressed.

Hi,

I have been using these tools for almost two years with no issues. Well starting last week I am getting an issue with my card reader "Unresponsive Card". I even tried reinstalling the software packages:

pcsc-lite for Centos 7
pcsc-lite-ccid for Centos 7
perl-pcsc Centos 7
pcsc-tools Centos 7

Here is what I get when I run pcsc_scan:

Any ideas what is happening ?

LICENSE file contains GPL-2 license.
README says GPL-2+.

From the comment at the top of source code files, I think it should be GPL-2+.

Desktop distros don't have a consensus:
https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-community-aarch64/pcsc-tools-1.5.7-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz.html (GPL)

https://opensuse.pkgs.org/tumbleweed/opensuse-oss-aarch64/pcsc-tools-1.5.7-1.5.aarch64.rpm.html (GPL-2+ AND GPL-3+)

I don't know where openSUSE got the idea that some code is GPL-3+.

Can we settle this once and for all and have consistency across files :)?
Thanks!

Using pcsc tools, is it possible to read the smart card data while querying the smart card reader? Are the processes asynchronous?

I am observing an issue with pcsc_scan.exe detecting my readers and then looping over and over rather than presenting a prompt to select reader and action.

The issue is observed when compiling from scratch and also when using the pre-compiled Windows binary.

I've uploaded a log of the output I am observing in both scenarios.

Any thoughts on possible causes?
