Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field	Description
`static java.lang.String`	`BCD_ENCODING`	The CHV is actually a PIN that is encoded in packed binary coded decimals (BCD)
`static java.lang.String`	`F2B_ENCODING`	The CHV is actually a PIN that is encoded in packed binary coded decimals (BCD) using ISO 9564-1 Format 2 Block
`static java.lang.String`	`PACE_ENCODING`	The CHV is verified by establishing a PACE channel
`static java.lang.String`	`STRING_ENCODING`	String encoding; that is, use the String.getBytes() method.
