Development Tools

Smart Toolz® is a comprehensive suite of software and hardware components that includes everything you need to develop contact and contactless memory smart card applications. The toolkit features the CardAppz® software, enabling marketing professionals to fully demonstrate card capabilities within a completely configurable card database and system. Also included is the Card Configuration Utility, which allows designers to configure card parameters, load data cards, and communicate with cards through the supplied Winplex® middleware.

Smart Toolz Includes:

• Five different Contact Memory Smart Cards
• Five different Contactless Memory Smart Cards
• Dual-Interface USB (contact & contactless) reader/writer
• Winplex middleware, with programming examples for C++, .NET, and Visual Basic
• Card Configuration Utility software
• Demo reader configuration utility software
• CardAppz software

System Features:

• Fastest application development tools available
• Complete toolset—no additional software necessary
• Wide range of reader choices, pre- and post-design
• Enhanced data security through the Card Configuration Utility software and Winplex middleware
• Robust, customizable card application demonstration software using supplied templates

Designed for multi-application and high security microprocessor based smart card systems, M.O.S.T. Toolz™ Smart Card Development Kit features robust software and hardware components for rapid system development. M.O.S.T. Toolz gives you the power to deliver multiple applications and services on a single card, allowing for fast system design and easy updating without the need for card re-issue.

M.O.S.T. Toolz Includes:

• Card Configuration Utility
• Five CPU cards for learning and development
• A choice of 3 types of smart card readers USB, PCMCIA or ExpressCard (these readers support both memory and microprocessor cards)
• Winplex® API and example source code
• PC/SC utility for greater hardware control

System Features:

• Highest rated development tools available
• Complete toolset--no additional hardware necessary
• Wide range of reader choices, pre and post-design
• Enhanced data security through sophisticated on-card file management
• Full application support through the Winplex library

The M.O.S.T. Card File Creation Utility lets you build an on-card file system with complete data modeling of the security parameters required by ISO 7816. After the card is configured, the tool allows for data loading of a test card that can then be put into the designer's application for real time evaluation.

The kit also has with Winplex middleware and a PC/SC Utility. These components enable a programmer to create a smart card-based transaction system that issues, updates and transacts securely throughout the whole lifecycle of a card while protecting user ID, card access and file information.

Winplex was created by CardLogix and is the only smart card middleware that enables system design with support for multiple card types (both memory and microprocessor). Multiple reader types (e.g. USB, serial, kiosk, PCMCIA, ExpressCard, keyboard, wedge, and magnetic stripe) are all supported, as well as multiple readers on the same PC. This is all accomplished with the one command set. The API supports AES, DES and Triple DES encryption and the SHA 1 and 256 authentication algorithms.

M.O.S.T. Toolz provides full support for all of the latest-generation CardLogix cards and file types, including extended large file types. The Toolz are designed for use in Windows Vista or XP operating systems. Also included are device drivers for Linux environments.

More details are available in the M.O.S.T. Toolz Product Information Sheet. Detailed specifications (including low level commands) of each card supplied are available under a separate M.O.S.T. Card Non-Discolsure Agreement.

The VirtuoSimo™ software lets you develop, test, validate and deploy Java-SIM based applets. It enables developers and test engineers to design, model and fine-tune end-to-end applications together before the expense of hardware testing. VirtuoSimo harnesses the power of embedded Java without the trouble of an embedded environment.

With VirtuoSimo, you can:

• Run a simulation of independent GSM phase 2+ mobile handsets and SMS services
• Easily implement USIM Application Toolkit* (USAT*) applets and related services on the wireless network, with better control
• Reduce development time and cost by tracking all errors in an iterative manner
• Develop a Java Card™ applet for a USAT card and test it using its mobile phone simulator and a wireless network simulator
• Present your USAT services with a friendly graphical interface, with no network subscription or dependence
• Develop with a GSM phase 2+ mobile handset equipped with a SIM card that can hold one or more applications
• Incorporate an SMS service, providing an open interface (API). This allows developers to benefit from an open environment to integrated middleware and back-end applications. For example, in a mobile banking application, the user can connect VirtuoSimo™ to a banking authorization network.
