Hi Brian, > Has anyone connected up a large number of USB readers to a single PC > before. And if so what make were they. I have already connected up to 15 readers in the same time on the same PC using USB hubs and they work fine with PC/SC Lite. You may connect up to 255 readers but you must modify a define in the source code of PC/SC Lite. In pcsclite.h change #define PCSCLITE_MAX_READERS_CONTEXTS 16 to #define PCSCLITE_MAX_READERS_CONTEXTS 256 and recompile all. > We need to set up a bank of readers and we tried GIS SM1's (because we > had a few) but we couldn't connect more than two. I developed the IFDHandler for the GIS SM1's (serial) [1] but actually it supports only 1 reader at the same time. I should improve it after the middle of february. As I had not feedback, I have not worked more on this IFDHandler. If you want to connect more than 2 SM1 it seems to me that there is serial hubs but a solution based on USB seems better.
