User Cards: Existing projects
When user cards are already in use in your project, they are probably already initialized. However, it should be
checked that sector 2 and 3 are secured with for this project unique MIFARE keys. Also, check if there is read
access with Key A and write access with key B.
User Cards: New Projects
When user cards are being bought off the factory, they need to be initialized. From the factory, the cards are
unprotected and they have public keys that are known to everyone that works with MIFARE cards. Before
handing out the cards to the users, all sectors will need to be protected with secret project keys. This initialization
process can be done with the SmartEncoder software and reader or any other software from different
manufacturers. More information on how to initialize cards can be found in the SmartEncoder manual.

Optional SmartEncoder Software

Software

Defining key sets and writing them to project cards can be done on site, through the use of the software package:
"Smart Encoder". In the software, MIFARE keys will have to be defined to be used for the sectors 2 and 3. The
Standard Key management screen can be used to define keys A and B for sectors 2 and 3 the key set has to be
saved to the Project Card, presenting the card to the smartcard readers in the project will upload the new user
card keys to the reader.
Step I
To start, you need to have a working combination of Smart
Encoder 8 software on a PC with the desktop MIFARE reader
powered up and connected to the RS232 port.
At start-up of the software, the message "Detected ISI Reader"
should be shown in the startup screen of the software. When the
reader is detected by the software, the green LED will light up.
Step II
The first step is to define keys A and B for the sectors 2 and 3
(these are the sectors the HandReader uses for storing and
retrieving information).
Choose File, Key Management from the main menu, the next
screen on the right should show:
Standard the public key set I is shown in this screen. With File
open other key sets can be edited and saved.
