Supported Operating Systems:
----------------------------
- Solaris 9 or newer (on SPARC).
Note that if you run a 32 Bit application on a 64 Bit machine,
you must use the 32 Bit version of these drivers!
Note that in principle it should be possible to use the USB readers
described for the 32 Bit version with 64 Bit programs as well, however,
we could not find a 64 Bit Version of libusb, so this is untested.
Installation notes for readers NOT using the MUSCLE framework:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Depending on your application you might want to use the MUSCLE framework
to connect to your reader. If you are using one of the readers which
always use the MUSCLE framework, this is obviously not a problem. For the
other readers, a so-called interface device handler (IFDH), i.e. a plugin
for the MUSCLE PC/SC lite framework, is provided by libkobil_ifd.so.
To use this handler, you may proceed as follows:
- First, install libct.so and libkobil_ifd.so to a directory in your
library search path.
- If the PC/SC lite framework is not yet installed, install it,
following the instructions of pcsclite (ccid and libusb are not
strictly needed for those readers).
- Last copy reader.conf to /etc and adapt it to your needs:
* enter the correct absolute path to libkobil_ifd.so
* enter the correct "CHANNEL".

Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
