Calypsonet Terminal Reader API - 1.3.0

This document is the API specification of the Calypso Networks Association's reference Terminal Reader API.

The Terminal Reader API should be used by the application layer in charge of setting up the reader management:

  • It defines the interfaces and classes necessary to manage readers, reader events and card selection mechanisms.
  • It is also used by extension modules to implement functionalities related to specific card operations and structures.

This API is used by the application layer that implements reader management, and to be used in conjunction with the Terminal Card API also proposed by Calypso Networks Association.
