With this feature you can copy a cryptographic key from one smart card to another.
For this you need at least two smart cards: the smart card that has the crypto-
graphic key you want to copy and one or more smart cards to copy on it.
Follow these steps to copy the cryptographic key:
1) Insert smart card A into the DIGITTRADE HS256S. The “STATUS“-LED flashes
once.
If the smart card has already a cryptographic key which is not initialised with the
HS256S the “ERROR“-LED illuminates.
If the smart card is already initialised, the “STATUS“-LED illuminates.
2) Press the “ADMIN“-button and then the “3“.
3) Press “ENTER“. The “STATUS“-LED flashes three times.
4) Type in your 8-digit device PIN and press “ENTER“. The “STATUS“-LED flashes
twice. Enter the 8-digit PIN from smart card A and press “ENTER“.
5) The “STATUS“-LED illuminates several times when the DIGITTRADE HS256S
reads the cryptographic key from smart card A. If the process was successful
the “STATUS“-LED illuminates green and you will hear two beeps.
6) Remove smart card A and insert smart card B into the DIGITTRADE
HS256. Pay attention that the “STATUS“-LED flashes once.
7) Enter the 8-digit PIN for smart card B and press “ENTER“.
8) The “STATUS“-LED flashes several times when the HS256S is writing
the cryptographic key to smart card B. If the process was successful
the “STATUS“-LED illuminates green and you will hear two beeps.
9) To copy to other smart cards redo steps 6-8. When finished disconnect the
USB connection to the DIGITTRADE HS256S and reconnect to exit this
feature.
Note: Do not remove the smart card during the read/write process (steps 5 and
8, the “STATUS“-LED flashes several times), the smart card could otherwise be
damaged.
