Open Session
This command powers the Smartcard on. The power on sequence is fully
compatible with ISO 7816-3 standards and determines whether the T=0 or
T=1 protocol will be used.
This command powers a Smartcard on and sends the Answer To Reset
(ATR) to the terminal. If the Smartcard is already powered on, then the
command merely returns the ATR (this function then permits either a cold
or a warm reset ).
