attempts for creating a new one. After this the inserted smart card is locked and no longer
usable.
6) The “STATUS“-LED flashes green whilst the DIGITTRADE HS256 S3 is creating
and writing the cryptographic keys to the smart card. If the process was successful,
the “STATUS“-LED illuminates green and it sounds an acoustic signal.
7) Seperate the USB connection to the DIGITTRADE HS256 S3 to exit
this feature.
The cryptographic keys have been created or changed. Now the prior cryptographic keys
have been irreversibly deleted. With this smart card you do not have a longer access to
the prior stored data. It’s necesseary to create a data backup before. If you want to use
these cryptographic keys with the HS256 S3, it has to be initialized for the HS256 S3.
Please follow the steps in chapter 5.4.
Note: Please do not remove the smart card during the creation of the cryptographic keys
(step 6 “STATUS“-LED flashes green several times), otherwise the smart card could be
damaged.
4.2 Deleting the cryptographic key
1. There are two ways to delete the cryptographic keys.
a) Deleting the cryptographic keys by creating a new one
Please follow the steps in chapter 4.1. With this method the cryptographic keys can
be quickly deleted without attracting attention in a dangerous situation as the process
hardly differs from the normal log-on process. Now the access to the data with this
smart card is even for the user impossible.
b) Deleting the cryptographic keys by entering the 8-digit PIN incorrectly 8 times
This method is more complex but can be done intuitive and without the knowledge of
the smart card PIN. Please follow these steps:
1) Insert a working smart card into the associated slot (see chapter 1.4 and 3.1).
2) Type in a wrong 8-digit PIN and press “ENTER“.
3) The red “ERROR”-LED flashes and it sounds an acoustic signal.
