HDR ActiveX Component

IC-XCard Controls Specifications



ICXCard Controls for Smartcards is a set of custom controls that enable applications which support
ActiveX to easily access MicroProcessor and memory Smartcards. The controls are designed to provide
Safeguarded data exchange over the Internet without requiring low level I/O or protocol knowledge.
Smartcard low level API functions are simplified to control member functions configured by the control
properties. The data access control provides the connection point between your application and the
Smartcard data. The IC Command button is a bound control which enables invoking specific data access
methods with the click of a button. ICXCard Controls supports both Memory and IC or CPU SmartCards
under the supported drives.
