Re: External Smart Card Reader Substitute Approval

Tab,
Yesterday I had Ian take a look at the web site and apparently the "S" stands for serial (U-USB, etc.) on the ACR-30-x units.  Go figure.

Lesley had indicated she could not find the ACS-30 reader on the securetech-corp.com web site.  This is because on their web site they call it an ACR reader but the label on the reader says ACS (I have no idea why the difference).

Lesley,
 
    The specs for both the ACS-30 and the ST-100 card readers can be found on  http://www.securetech-corp.com/smart.html website.
 
    The differences are the ACS-30 card reader is less expensive but requires connecting to both a serial port and a PS1 (keyboard or mouse) port.  It can share the PS2 port with the keyboard or the mouse since it only uses this port for power.
 
    The ST-100 is more expensive but only requires the use of a serial port.  It gets its power from the serial port so there is not other connection required.
 
    For exact pricing you will need to contact Ian since I do not have it.

Tab, what are the specs on the second card reader and what are the distinguishing differences between the two?  What criteria should be considered when making a decision between these two devices?  Thanks! Lesley

Can you give us the manufacture name or web site for further information on this card reader?
Thanks

I have now completed work on supporting the ST-100 card reader. This will be available for VCProgrammer 4.1.4.

Is there any status update on the rcr to approve a new external smart card reader device for attaching to laptops and PCs (i.e., early voting).
