Smart Card Reader Examples

NWCCTV

Does anyone know of a Smart Card reader example either in the OBEX or for the BS 2 that lets you write more than Hexadecimal numbers? I need to be able to input Names, DOB, etc. and the only thing I have found are the Hexadecimal examples.

Edit: So I did find this one, http://obex.parallax.com/object/511 by searching the Forums instead of the OBEX. However, If anyone knows of a link to a Stamp version that would also help. This is for my Micro Medic project but thought I would post here since this Forum seems to get more attention. I am still not sure if I will only be using the Prop Boe on my project or a combination of that and a BS2.

In Johnny Mac's demo above the pins are defined as:

con
  RX  = 31                                                      ' programming/debug port
  TX  = 30
  CD  = 0                                                       ' smart card connections
  CLK = 1
  DIO = 2

So where on the Smart Card do I connect RX/TX? There are only 6 pins of which 5 are used, 3 for Data, one for VCC and one for ground.

Here is a BS2 example writing/reading a name and addressI displays the data in Hex (on left) and ascii (on right) in the Debug window
