Please select a driver from the list below:


ECO 5000 card reader driver

The lowest driver level is the ECO 5000 CT-API Driver for Linux and Windows that exposes a common CT-API interface. This interface allows access to the terminal using the Card Terminal Basic Command Set (CT-BCS). This layer also includes the support for memory cards, exposed as Interindustry Command Set for Synchronous Cards.

The CT-API driver supports the IFD Handler interface from PC/SC, that is required for the PC/SC implementation in M.U.S.C.L.E. The interface however can not be used for Windows, because the driver does not run in Windows kernel mode. :-(

Please take a look in the included README document for further information.

This driver only works with the serial interface version of the ECO 5000. ORGA also sells a USB version, that is incompatible with the serial version. This driver will not work with the USB version !

Java Native Interface for CT-API

Please note, that this section is no longer maintained. If you need a more recent versions, then please download the source code for the Smart Card Shell, which includes an updated OCF version that incorporated JNI2CTAPI and CTAPI4OCF.

We also provide a generic Java Native Interface to CT-API in Java. The JNI allows a programmer to access any CT-API driver on Linux or Windows using the CT-BCS commands. The source code is in .tar.gz format and contains support for Windows. Please take a look at the README contained.

CT-API CardTerminal support for OpenCard Framework

Please note, that this section is no longer maintained. If you need a more recent versions, then please download the source code for the Smart Card Shell, which includes an updated OCF version that incorporated JNI2CTAPI and CTAPI4OCF.

Build on top of the Java Native Interface is a generic card terminal class for CT-API devices. The current version supports single slot readers, but it has only been tested with the ECO 5000 on Linux and Windows and with a Towitoko reader under Windows.

This software can be used to replace the OpenCard to PC/SC Bridge available for Windows and M.U.S.C.L.E. You will not need to run PC/SC to enable access to the card reader from OCF. Please take a look at the README included.

To allow support for memory cards, you will need to patch the CardID.java file. The original implementation does not know anything about memory cards, but you will only need to add a single line of code to support it.
