1.0. Introduction
The ACM1281S-Z1 PC-Linked Smart Card Module acts as an interface for the communication
between a computer (for example, a PC) and a smart card. Different types of smart cards have
different commands and different communication protocols which prevents, in most cases the direct
communication between a smart card and a computer. The ACM1281S-Z1 establishes a uniform
interface from the computer to the smart card for a wide variety of cards. By taking care of the card
specific particulars, it releases the computer software programmer from getting involved with the
technical details of the smart card operation, which are not relevant in many cases of the
implementation of smart card system.
This document contains information regarding the connection procedure of the ACM1281S-Z1 Smart
Card Module to PC.
