About Creck


Creck is a utility that helps you to test the functionality of smartcard readers and check the status of the related system services. The title Creck stands for "Cardreader check".

For running the tests you need a smartcard and a smartcard reader with a USB or Bluetooth connection. If you've connected several readers at once, the tests will be performed only on the first available device.

Mac OS X supports PC/SC standard readers out-of-the-box. When using non-conform readers the installation of additional driver software can be necessary.
