Using smart cards (select models only) NOTE: The term smart card is used throughout this chapter to refer to both smart cards and Java™ Cards. A smart card is a credit card-sized accessory that carries a microchip containing memory and a microprocessor. Like personal computers, some smart cards have an operating system to manage input and output, and they include security features to protect against tampering. Industry-standard smart cards are used with the smart card reader (select models only). A personal identification number (PIN) is needed to gain access to the contents of the microchip. For more information about smart card security features, refer to Help and Support. Inserting a smart card 1. Hold the card label-side up, and gently slide the card into the smart card reader until the card is seated. 2. Follow the on-screen instructions for logging on to the computer using the smart card PIN. 30 Chapter 5 External cards and devices
