PICard credential reads the card identifier assigned during encryption. If the card has no ID, the following options are displayed:

  • Not encryptable – the card type is compatible with the 2N PICard technology, but the project has no access to its PICC master key.

  • This card is not suitable for PICard encryption – the application does not support this card type. The 2N PICard technology is designed for the encryption of the MIFARE DESFire EV2 and EV3 cards.

  • Not encrypted yet – the card can be encrypted.

  • Unknown – the card is encrypted in another project under a different main encryption key. The card may be also be corrupted.

Card Status displays the card state or encryption options.

  • Valid PICard credential – the card is encrypted in this project.

  • The card can be encrypted (card is empty) – the card is not encrypted. The card has factory default settings.

  • The card can be encrypted – the card is not encrypted. A project compatible PICC master key is set on the card.

  • Different PICC Master Key detected. Card's current PICC Master Key required for encryption – the card cannot be encrypted in this project. The set PICC master key is different.

  • PICard application created in a different project, so cannot be read in this project

  • Only Mifare DESFire EV2 or EV3 are supported – the card cannot be encrypted. The application does not support this card type. The used card is MIFARE DESFire EV1.

  • INVALID CREDENTIAL (there's a problem with the digital signature) – the encrypted access data cannot be displayed. The authenticity confirmation has failed. The digital signature is invalid.

Card ID displays the card UUID and informs that the Random ID function is enabled.
