Administration of Card SDK includes configuration with the Configuration Manager tool. Also the status of the system can be retrieved.

Expand
titleConfigure system

The Configuration Manager is the tool to configure all local settings like user interface language, printers, encoding devices and SDK license. You can start it directly using the link in the Nexus Card SDK program group from the Windows Start menu or by the corresponding desktop link. Furthermore, there is the possibility to start it by a web service request.

When starting it via web service request, you will not be able to change a few very basic settings like the web service port.

As the request opens a user interface, it may only be called from localhost.

ElementAttributeDescription

system_status

[out] Root element for the system status request.



sdk/@version

[out] SDK Version according to the following four numbers scheme:

<major>.<minor>.<maintenance>.<build>

license/@valid

[out] The general information (true or false) if the SDK is in charge of a valid license.

machine/@name

[out] The machine name where the web service is installed.

system/machine/@port[out] The port number that is used by the web service.

production_status/@id
production_status/@text

[out] The identifier and a textual representation of the current web service status. The value signals the status to accept CardJob requests.

  • id = 0 means the service is ready. A sent card job will be processed immediately.
  • id = 1 means the service is busy. If a new card job is sent it is queued (which means the request will only return when the current card job request is processed).
