I have to make an app where I have to use external USB NFC device to read and write data to NFC tags and also p2p between that reader and android nfc phones.

I have a NFC device ACR1222L. I also downloaded the android library from http://android.acs.com.hk/ The library comes with a demo project.

Now My problem is when I run the demo project in emulator and connect my pc with the device, the project runs and shows the first screen. But when I put any tag on the device, nothing happens.

Is there anything that I need to do to make the demo project work? I also did not find any good documentation about how to make an external nfc device work with android. Does anyone know any good source or tutorial?

Are you seeing any light on the reader? – ThomasRS Mar 11 '13 at 14:01
Add what buttons you've pressed and that the log says – ThomasRS Mar 11 '13 at 14:40
In the emulator i only have 'list' and 'open' button enabled. if I click on them, nothing happens. – Reza.Hoque Mar 11 '13 at 14:45
BTW, do I have to do anything special to detect the USB port from the emulator. I saw some web pages where it says emulator can not detect usb though they are kind of 2 years old. – Reza.Hoque Mar 11 '13 at 14:51
Get a real device and go from there – ThomasRS Mar 11 '13 at 15:14
