QUICK START GUIDE
Introduction
The 73S1209F Evaluation Board is a dual-voltage power supply, serial smart car d reader development ki t
for the efficient evaluation and development of stand-alone so lutions. The board provides two interfaces.
The board can be used in conjunction with any Windows
host applicat ion can access the board th r ough the Teridian Pseudo-CCID (PCCID) commands to
comm unicate with asynch r onous smar t cards, following T-0 and T-1 p r otocols, in compli ance with
ISO7816-3 and EMV 4.1 standards.
For details about use of t his development boar d in em bedded appli cations (i. e. platforms ot her than PC
Windows XP ) , refer to the 73S12xxF Pseud o-CCID Host Application Guide (UG _12xxF_0 52) or contact
Teridian support.
®
XP host system that has an RS-232 port. The
System Requirements
• A PC running Microsoft® Windows XP and equipp ed with a serial p or t.
• Eight meg abytes of disk storag e for the Ter idian Exerciser application and documentation.
Package Contents
• A 73 S1209F Evaluation Board popul ated with a 73S1209F and pre-loaded with the Teridian
Pseudo-CCID firmware.
• A CD contai ning the associated drivers, applications and d ocumentation .
• An RS-232 serial cable female/male, 2 meters.
• A 7-12 V D C pow e r supply.
Default Setup
The 73S1209F Evaluation Board ships with a default configuration suitable for use as a turnkey
Transparent Sm ar t Card R eader using a R S-232 ser i al connecti on to co m m unicate with a host PC
app l ication. The board’s hardware and fi r mware are both p r e-configured by Teridian to work in this state
and the information in this document assumes th i s defau l t con figur ation. Refer to the 73S1209F
Evaluation B oar d User Guide for details on alternate hardware configurations and uses.
Software Installation on Windows XP
Follow these steps using a PC running Windows XP:
• Extract “PCCID V y.yy Release.zip” (where y.yy is the latest versi on of the firmwar e r el ease).
o Create an instal l directory. For example: “C:\TSC\”.
o Unzip “PCCID V y.yy Release.zip” to the just created fol der. All ap plications and documentat ion
need ed to run the board with a Windows PC wil l be load ed to t his folder.
• Connect the Serial cable between th e host system and the b oar d.
• Plug the supplied adapter into the 5V DC jack on the board.
Press the ON/OFF button once. The power LED D4 should turn on.
At this point the application i s now installed and the d evelopment board is ready to use. The provided
host applicat ion or any other host application can now be launched from Windows XP to access the sm ar t
card r eader.
THIS EVALUATION SYSTEM IS ESD SENSITIVE! ESD PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE
TAKEN WHEN HANDLING THE BOARD!

Demonst rati on H ost Appli cati on
Included on the CD i s a demonstration application named “ TSCP-CCID.exe” which is located in the
“x:\yyy\ \PCCID Vz.zz Release\Host Ap plications\Windows App\App\Bin\Release” directory (where x
refers to the drive, yyy refers to the d i r ectory the installation .zip fi l e was exp anded to and z.zz is th e
latest versi on of the firmware release) . This is a host application that allows:
• Smart card act i vation and deactivation, in ISO or EMV mode.
• Smart card APDU command s to be exch anged with the smart card inserted in the board.
• Star ting a test sequen ce in order to test and evaluat e the board performance ag ainst an EMV test
environment.
Run “TSCP-CC ID.exe” to execu te the host demonstration application. At this point the application
window should appear. For addi tional i nform ation regard i ng the use of the Terid ian Host application,
refer t o the Pseudo-CCID Host GUI Users Guide (UG_12xxF_037).

Integrati on in an Em be dde d Sys te m
The 73S1209F Evaluation Board can al so be connected to a host micropr ocessor in an em bedded
architect ure, l ike in Poin t-of-Sales t er minals, solid-state utili ty met er s and digital Set-Top Boxes. In such
cases, a software Pseud o-CCID driver must be i ntegrated within the host processor embedded so ftware.
The Teridian C D provided wit h this Development Boar d incl udes the ANSI C source code of the Teridi an
gen er i c driver that will allow seamless i ntegration into virtually and p r ocessor and operating system. For
add i tional information, refe r to the 73S12xxF Pseudo-CCID Host Application Guide (UG_12xxF_052).
