MP300 SCL1 (spy+smartcard simulation)

The ultimate contactless protocol analyser and terminal tester

  • Supports the ISO/IEC 14443, ISO/IEC 15693, MifareTM and FeliCaTM protocols

  • Supplies a graphical representation of the spied exchanges using the MPManager suite

  • Optional contactless smartcard emulation feature

  • Advanced physical testing (Electro Magnetic Disturbance generation, load modulation setting, ...)


The main features of the MP300 SCL1 are :

  • Protocol analysis of exchanges using the ISO/IEC 14443, MifareTM, FeliCaTM protocols
  • Simulation and spy of ISO/IEC 14443, ISO/IEC 15693, MifareTM, FeliCaTM smartcards
  • Automatic detection of baudrate changes
  • Detailed graphical representation of all spied exchanges
  • Non intrusive data acquisition probe
  • Evolutivity into a contactless smartcard simulator
  • Protocolary test features (customisable response time, wrong CRC, parity errors)
  • Advanced physical test features (customisable load modulation, generation of EMD (electro magnetical disturbance))
  • Open platform : integrate the MP300 SCL1 inside your own test platform
  • Supplied with the MPManager software suite, enabling the complete control of the tester without any programming knownedge
  • This tester is recognised as the reference tester for Level 1 contactless terminal certification by the main payment organisation

 

This tester will typically be used in the following contexts :

  • Debug of the protocol handling of a smartcard, or a reader
  • Characterisation of a reader (protocolary and physical)
  • On site debugging

User Interface

MPManager

The MP300 SCL1 is supplied with the MPManager software. Its easy and intuitive interface will help you to start the spy sessions, just clicking on one button.

At the end of the spy session, all exchanged that have been trapped are displayed, either under a tree shape, or under a graphical approach.

 
Once the spy session is over, the MPManager software displays all exchanged that have been trapped.


 

The contactless smartcard simulator can be also driven using the MPManager software. The content of the frames, the activation of the triggers, the generation of errors can be activated very easily :

 


 

Using the Dll component that is supplied by Micropross, it is also possible to program smartcard simulation scripts from a user defined program. This way, it even becomes possible to program non-deterministic scripts (ideal to simulate cryptographic behaviours)


 


Micropross supplies a complete range of accessories for the MP300 SCL1, that include :

  • Spare spy probes
  • Software upgrade, to make a contactless smartcard simulator out of the MP300 SCL1

We also supply packages to extend the warranty of the tester. Please ask us for the maintenance contracts available.
