WHICH SETTING TO CHOOSE ?
PC/SC
PC/SC is the short form for Personal Computer / Smart Card. It is a set of specications
created by the smartcard and computing industry to ensure a complete interoperability at
the applicative level. In PC/SC setting, the PUCK is a transparent coupler, which means
that he sends orders of the application (read, write, security) to the card and feedbacks the
answers without trying to process them. Thanks to its integrated SIM/SAM slot, the PUCK
One is the ideal medium for secured transactions.
RFID SCANNER
In RFID Scanner setting, the PUCK is a smart reader. Once set to look for this or this
data in several contactless card types or badges, it is performing the transaction with the
card by itself and transmits only the useful data to the computer or tablet. Seen as a USB
keyboard (HID keyboard prole), PUCK is as simple to use as a barcode scanner. Every
existing application can operate the PUCK as an entry peripheral as easily as if data were
entered by the operator.
I AM A BIT LOST...
You can also choose not to choose - for now. The PUCK One goes from one set to another
easily. You can either use SpringCard Companion or put on the product a MasterCard
formatted with the same software. Security is a constant concern for SpringCard, only the
lawful owner can intervene on the settings of its products.
