Accessing to Smart Card Readers using Labview 

This program is an example that how access to Smart Card Readers (PC/SC) to get some information about a SIM Card, this program is not debuged yet and have some issues.

The point is wear the  winscard.dll where  all the function to access to this PC/SC readers are defined, I don´t have enought skills as programmer, but I think that it could be help somebody to develope
applications with Labview and SIM cards (GSM, USIM, etc..)

Enrique,

Great job on the VI.  To make it easier to read and maintainable I might suggest cleaning up the code a little (aligning things, straighten wires, etc.).  You would be amazed how much easier to use code becomes when just a little effort is put into the Block Diagram.  All and all, good work!

I have been looking for a similar solution for some time. I've been using a .NET component (Included. remove the .txt extension) to send and receive APDUs to GSM SIMs for the past eight months but wanted a direct LabVIEW solution to interfacing with winscard.dll. Perhaps you could communicate with me directly to share development.  The code to manipulate the SIM expands several VIs and is not in a form I can share. I can be reached at riveratony@ieee.org.

Hi Enrique ,

The  "GETTING_ATR_FROM_SIM_CARD_GSM_cleaned.vi"  is not able  to open in Labview 7.1 . It says " Labview 7.1 has encountered some problem and need to close ". Can you please help me in this . If you could post the vi again it will be more helpful.

Thanks & Regards,

Venkat

Hi,

I thinke that I have the same problem and need your help. I want to read the SIM s tel number. In my application I have  around 22 DLL functions and I dont really know if I should use all of them or which one of them. I 'am connecting my GS64 modem whith the PC via RS232.

Best regards

Hi dlawer,

I google'd your question and it looks like there is not an AT command to retrieve the telephone number:

Hello!

Let me first understand your question,  Do you want to know wich of 22 DLL´s, that you have, can you use to sent an AT command to retrive the MSISDN on SIM Card?

If you answer is yes, you should be identify all the functions in your dll and found wich of them ara used to sent AT commands like SMS send, SMS retrive, etc.., the same structure of this commands you can use to send another AT Command.

The number should be record on the SIM Card.

AT+CNUM Subscriber Number

Description:

This command returns the MSISDNs related to the subscriber (this information can be

stored in the SIM or in the ME). If subscriber has different MSISDN for different services,

each MSISDN is returned in a separate line.

Test if the command

is supported

AT+CNUM=?

Best Regards.
