EMV Configuration CA Public Keys File Type
The host can load this file type to control the behavior of the device’s EMV contact and contactless kernels when the device should support Offline Data Authentication (ODA). Populate all values from information provided by each payment brand that should be supported by the device. The host can load this file using Command 0xD812 - Start Send File to Device (Unsecured).
MagTek provides tools that allow these settings to be loaded using a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet in xlsx format for more convenient authoring, review, and change tracking. For a reference sample spreadsheet,
contact MagTek Support Services. The MagTek tools expect the spreadsheet to be formatted format as shown in Table 41. Each CA Key to be supported is defined in a tab of the Excel file.
