SmartCard2 v2.0 Firmware Released
DriveRight Note

A short time ago a customer reported that two SmartCard features we're not working. Namely, programming a new PIN code or Trip Stop Time into a DriveRight. This firmware revision fixes both problems.

Any SmartCard2 On Board Reader with a manufacturing code of September 26th, 2006 and later will have the latest firmware. We did rework the few dozen we had in finished goods as well. Those that were reworked have a small black X written on the bottom of their package.

This bug was actually present in the original SmartCard On Board Readers as well and not just in SmartCard2 On Board Readers. However, this firmware release in only for the SmartCard2 On Board Readers. Our presumption is that since no one ever noticed the problem in the original readers we will not have a great need to fix the problem in the earlier models.

Since there is currently no easy way to update Readers in the field anyone wishing to resolve this issue will need to return their Readers to the factory for service.
