I have spoken with Towitoko, and it seems to be a wrong
card in the the package. The label on the crad package
says CHIPCARD M2 (I2C EEPROM) card, and Towitoko says, that cards
using PINs are CHIPCARD M2P. The M2 type does not use any
PIN.
The information of the "000" as default PIN would be
helpful for me, but no chance any more to try it !!!
"000" is this always for new manufactured cards ?
Is it 0x00 0x00 0x00 binary or "000" = 0x30 0x30 0x30 ASCII ?
With friendly regards
