Once you have downloaded and unpacked the driver files, make sure your computer is connected to, and can access the by its configuration pages. Check by using your Internet browser.

The installation starts off by finding out the IP address of the card reader (= the IP address of the ). If it can't find the reader immediately, it doesn't mean that the reader isn't properly connected, only that the IP address is not among the expected values. You will then have to enter the IP address manually (the same

address as the one you probably typed in the Internet browser, to view the configuration pages), click "Try connect again" to make sure you are right this time.

The button
Skip connect, just install
could be pressed if you know precisely why you can't connect to the reader at the moment, but feel sure about it's future IP address.

After the installation (it really takes just a second or two), you will have to restart the computer. For Windows 95/98/Me/NT4 you will probably be asked to install the Microsoft Smart Card Base Component (the PC/SC, see below). This only happens if you haven't used any (PC/SC-based) smartcard reader on your computer before. Normally you want to answer
Yes
on this question, and Microsoft's installation program will take over from here.

For Windows 2000/XP the installation is not finished until, after the restart, you have walked through the
Found new hardware
dialogs. Don't be worried about the driver being not digitally signed, answer
Continue anyway

For Windows 2000/XP the smart card device should be visible (after the installation) in the Control Panel, under
System
,
Hardware
,
Device Manager
,
Smart card readers
as a device "
SMART-IP...
". This is of course not a "real" hardware on your computer, but merely a token that the driver acts like any Plug-and-Play hardware. If there is an exclamation mark on the device symbol, the most probable cause is that the driver hasn't been able to contact the reader from startup, see under "Troubleshoot".For Windows 95/98/Me/NT4 the device is not that visible, by viewing system information one can only see it as a driver named ixpcscip.vxd (ixpcscip.sys on NT4).
