Annex
A (informative) Examples of interface coding
    A.1 Case 1
    A.2 Case 2

Defines mandatory and optional interfaces between devices and machine readable cards in addition to other interfaces, to the extent that they are applicable to the processing of the machine readable card. Defines characteristics of each interface and supplies the means, by bitmap coding, of identification of the capabilities of devices so as to confirm the compatibility between specific data and cards. Refers to existing standards for technical specifications.
