5.2 Reading a device

If you have a device present, you can read it directly instead of searching for it in the MyID database.

To read a device:

1. Click the Devices category.

2. Click READ CARD.

   The Select Security Device dialog appears.

   

3. Insert the smart card you want to read, or select a VSC that is stored on the PC.

   Note: The device must have been issued by the current MyID system. You cannot read devices issued by other systems.

   The View Device screen appears. See section 5.1, Searching for a device for details of the actions you can carry out on this screen.
