FTException: err : 612 with some of the cards

[JasKuus]

Hi,

I get an exception
com.ftsafe.readerScheme.FTException: [ERROR]
[com.ftsafe.readerScheme.FTReader:readerPowerOn][err : 612]
[com.ftsafe.readerScheme.FTException: err : 612]
when I try to power on a card.

I am using your library FTReaderAPI_1.0.9.6.jar in my Android application.

This problem occurs with Feitian bR301 reader (151015AA00065H) both with USB and Bluetooth modes.

Power on fails only when I am using our own cards. Cards made by another organization works fine with this reader. I have no problems with our own test cards when I am using readers from other manufacturers (for example ACS). So the Feitian reader should be fine as it works with the other cards. And our own cards should be fine as they work with other readers. Maybe your library is not parsing the ATR from our own cards correctly?

Own card ATR (This does not work):
3B 9F 95 81 31 FE 9F 00 66 46 53 05 10 00 FF 71 DF 00 00 00 00 00 EC
JavaCOS A22 dual interface Java card - 150K (JavaCard)
(ATR got with winscard SCardStatus function: 3B 9F 95 81 31 FE 9F 00 66 46 53 05 10 00 FF 71 DF 00 00 00 00 00 EC FF 03 00 00 00 AE B4 D2 01, last bytes are some extra bytes?)

Card made by another organization, ATR (This works):
3B DD 96 00 80 31 FE 45 00 31 B8 64 04 29 EC C1 73 94 01 80 82 48
Finnish Digital and Population Services Agency Organisation Card (eID)
(ATR got with winscard SCardStatus function: 3B DD 96 00 80 31 FE 45 00 31 B8 64 04 29 EC C1 73 94 01 80 82 48 FF FF 03 00 00 00 AE B4 D2 01, last bytes are some extra bytes?)

@JasKuus 612 indicates it is a IFD_COMMUNICATION_ERROR, would you please check your reader's firmware version. The attached screenshot shows you how to get the firmware version.

And use this tool to try to power on the card, when the issue occurs, tap the "Log“ on the top left of App screen, and send mail to me: richard@ftsafe.com.
