ViVOconfig is an invaluable tool that will capture the complete configuration (including AIDs, CAPKs and Terminal settings) of a reader and allow it to be saved to a file. That file then be applied to different reader. Use it to ensure that a reader has the same configuration as a know good unit.


Announcement:

 

Just completed! ID TECH announces the next major update to ViVOConfig.

Major Updates:

  • Now uses SDK 2.1.x.x, which is a multi-device SDK. This app can now connect to any number of devices, any interfaces, and at the same time. In the screenshot, there is an Augusta and two VP3300 attached
    • Device Connection Options....
      • USB connections are automatic
      • Selecting a COM device will automatically connect to default baud on the only existing COM port
        • if there are multiple COM ports, you wil be asked which one to use
        • If you want to use another baud, be sure to change that before you attempt to connect (another option in that menu
      • You can connect to IP using standard or TLS connections
    • You can disconnect from any device. If you disconnect from USB, you either need to plug/unplug to get it to auto-recognize, or you can select Scan USB Bus instead
  • ViVOConfig now contains the complete command tree from our USDK demo
  • Within ViVOConfig, you can now do things like RKI updates, firmware updates, setting command, verifying a transaction, etc., without the need to switch our USDK demos
  • "Memo" field -> allows custom command execution
    • There is a Memo field that can now be included in the JSON files.
    • The memo field can simply be used to add information about the files.
    • The Memo field can be used by the ViVOConfig to determine if any custom code needs to be executed.
      • When writing files to the device, ViVOConfig will look at the memo first to understand if anything special needs to happen.
      • Currently, there is just one string recognized for custom command execution. As we find cases in the future, we can define other strings to do special things.
      • Current Custom Command recognized strings from memo field:
      • "SET-DFED22": If this is found in the memo, the utility will change DFED22 to be <serial number>-<emv kernel version> for that particular device being configured

Minor enhancements and fixes:

  • Added file name checking for valid value when loading ViVOconfig files. (the previous version crashed on this case)
  • Updated 03-05 to keep last AID listing in memory if called on next command {previous version sending too many unnecessary aid commands during the reading process)
  • Removed FFE4 when saving ctls data group 0 in VivoConfig (the previous version failed when writing group 0)
  • Fixed get CTLS group parsing in VivoConfig (the previous version had issue parsing CTLS groups)
  • Added Augusta Beeper control to VivConfig  (the previous version only recorded beeper setting on VP3300, not Augusta)
  • Added retryCount to IDTComm class to set command retries on timeout condition (overcomes timeout issues when writing)
  • Added min timeout to IDTComm class to override command timeout. (overcomes timeout issues when writing)
  • Added reporting both fw and sn on device connection
