Smartcard Decoding Program Update Windows
High Definition, DVB-S2X, HEVC, CDCAS Cardless SRT 497S Digital Satellite Receiver/Recorder (recommended) or High Definition, DVB-S2, MPEG-4, CONAX (paired) SRT 4915 Digital Satellite & Terrestrial Receiver/Recorder. UPDATE: it really only works with unencrypted tags. The decode software doesn't seem to do much (maybe if the defaults were used on the card it might work but I have yet to see it work). If you need to copy an encrypted tag your better off getting an NFC USB dongle compatible with cracking software and learning how to use it. Startimes decoder possesses auto-update function. When the decoder receives a new version of the software, a dialog box will pop up to remind you of new version of software update, and then the decoder will automatically update the software. Interruption of signal strength can cause update disruption. Click on FWUpdate.exe, this will update your firmware to version 5.26. CHECK SERVICES to make sure Smart Card is running (This Video shows a very basic version on how to start the service (start at 44 seconds)) If your CAC reader is still not seen by ActivClient, make sure that the Smart Card service is running.
Free software to read your card number – PACSprobe is an easy-to-use software tool to analyze card and reader and read card data.
The utility detects the card type (prox, iCLASS, Mifare ..) and then reads data such as user ID, card number, facility code to name a few.
PACSprobe supports logical and physical access control cards on desktop card readers with USB interface.
HID iCLASS cards are supported
on all OMNIKEY card readers.
Card number worn-off? Faded fob and card labels won’t pose an issue anymore. The card number can be read using a desktop card reader and PACSprobe.
Presenting a card to a card reader, displays the card number that’s printed on the card. PACSprobe displays card data. The resulting card number is copied to the clipboard for easy copy and paste.
The output can also be placed in the keyboard buffer, allowing you to populate Excel spread sheets, Notepad or any other software that accepts manual data input.
Building management staff uses our PACSProbe software to maintain and validate physical access cards.
PACSprobe allows maintenance engineers to check if a key fob is still working without the need of a door reader.
PACSprobe supports all HID OMNIKEY desktop readers and is the ideal tool to check a card number of a fob that’s a little worn and has an illegible card number label.
Smartcard Decoding Program Updates
A quick card check goes way beyond the simple green light & beep test of a physical access control system.
Access control installers love the keyboard wedge feature. PACSprobe can drop card numbers directly into NotePad, Excel or any other editable field – without any software integration or source code modification of existing software application.
PACSprobe can be configured to support any card format supported by HID PROX, iCLASS, SEOS cards and many more.
It is so easy to use … it doesn’t even have an “easy button”.
We developed PACSprobe using our very own smart card library, SmartCard-API(professional). It is available at smartcard-api.com.
SmartCardAPI is a set of .NET libraries. It allows C# and VB.NET software developers to write their own smart card software. SmartCardAPI supports PC/SC compliant card readers. A fully functional trial version can be downloaded for free.
