Hi Rami,
You are experiencing a problem where javax.comm (the Java communications
package, used to access the serial ports) attempts to use a port which is
locked by another windows application.
In this case, it is likely to be a native driver for the PCT-200 which is
locking the port, making it unavailable to java. (You can check if this is
the case by plugging the terminal into COM2, changing the
opencard.properties entry accordingly, and trying again. Do this without
rebooting. Another option is booting the PC with the PCT-200 unplugged, and
plugging it in after booting - with option a, the native driver won't
interfere, with option b it won't load. This is your workaround... let me
know how it works).
