This manual describes the memory card API (Application Programming ( Interface) functions smart card reader; Application
software developers should refer to this manual to develop their own software for read/write memory card smart card reader.

Contactless Smart Card
4,294,967,295 (32 bit) unique IDs
Memory (>8196 bits) can be modified if authenticated (secret keys match)
2 secret keys per sector with at least 16 application sectors
13.5MHz Radio Frequency; Less RF interference from other devices like Gate Controllers
Faster speed (108K baud rate).
Uses data encryption on the RF channel with reply attack protection.
ISO standard mutual 3-pass authentication to secure bi-directional transmission between reader and card.

Proximity Card
65,535 (16-bit) unique IDs
Memory (<64 bits) READ ONLY
One password or secret key normally for whole card
125KHz Radio Frequency
Slow speed in reading.
No interrogation response or data encryption between reader and card to establish secure data link.
No such capability
More coil turns as a result it cannot be bended more than 90 degree
