Changing The Smart Card Pin - Digittrade HS256S User Manual

Note: In the activated status the HS256S must not be unattended to prevent unau-
thorized access. Please note that when leaving your workplace and when not using
the DIGITTRADE HS256S it should be locked correctly. All data transfers must be
completed and the HS256S must be separated from the USB-/FireWire- connector
and power supply. If the lock-out mode is activated it suffices to remove the smart
card from the smart card slot.
For security reasons it is recommended to hide traces upon entry that could allow
conclusions about the use of PIN numbers. Possible measures can be:
1. Regularly cleaning of the keypad, so no fingerprints are visible.
2. Regularly tap all the buttons, so fingerprints are spread evenly.
3. Using special stylus pens that do not leave marks on the surface of the keypad,
such as the DIGITTRADE stylus pen.

3.3 Changing the smart card PIN

Follow these steps to change your smart card PIN:
1) Insert the smart card into the DIGITTRADE HS256S (see page 37).
2) Press the "CHANGE PIN" button and afterwards the "1" button.
3) Confirm the entry with "ENTER". The "STATUS"-LED will flash four
times.
4) Type in the current 8-digit PIN and press "ENTER" to confirm the entry.
5) Enter the new 8-digit smart card PIN and press "ENTER" for confirmation.
6) Enter the new confirmed 8-digit smart card PIN again and press "ENTER".
After a successful PIN change, the "STATUS"-LED will flash four times and you
will hear two beeps. The DIGITTRADE HS256S will be identified by the system as
a removable medium and the lighting of the touchpad disappears.
The access is enabled and the smart card can be removed.
If the PIN change was not successful, the "ERROR" LED will flash. Press the "ESC"
button and start again with the first step of the PIN change.
