What version of OpenSC are your using? On What Windows OS? Looking closer the reader-pcsc.c in github has two sets of code, one for normal pcsc used by PKCS#11 and one for cardmod i.e. minidriver, that check for reader features for the pin pad. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg487500.aspx Version 6 says External PINs for PIN PAD are new. Vista and later. Version 7 Talks about External PINs. Windows 7 and later. So the code may be there.
