User interface
The MP300 TC3 is supplied with the MPManager software, whose aim is to open all of the tester's functionalities, accessible just with mouse clicks.
First, the MPManager software will make it possible for you to define all electrical settings, including applied voltages, the clock frequency, the rise and fall time of all signals.
This user interface will allow you to edit your test scripts, starting from the library of commands available. They cover a full range of functionalities, such as sending APDU commands, or launching electrical measurement
MPManager also allows you to visualise all exchanges that happened between the MP300 TC3 and the smartcard. Data is displayed both as a tree, where a deep analysis is supplied, and as a chronogram, which gives the possibility to measure all kind of timings (response times, activation time, ...)
Many possibilities are offered to edit HCI commands, and send them to the smartcard
Once executed, a test sequence can be visualised using MPManager's high level interpreters.

The integrated oscilloscope shows you the analog waveshapes, synchronised with the digital signals.
This user interface gives also access to all electrical measurements of the smartcard. For example, the shmoo plot window will make it possible for you to study the influence of the combination of several electrical or protocolary parameters on the execution of a given script.
This user interface also allows to launch dynamic measurement. This feature allows you to have a clear vision of the current or the voltage on a given contact, as time goes by.
- a SIM to ISO converter
- an external smartcard reader (ideal companion to perform testing in temperature controlled environments)
- probes to enable spying sessions between a smartcard and an external reader
- a probe for oscilloscope connection
We also supply packages to extend the warranty of the tester. Please ask us for the maintenance contracts available.
