@item --card-timeout @var{n}
@opindex card-timeout
If @var{n} is not 0 and no client is actively using the card, the card
will be powered down after @var{n} seconds. Powering down the card
avoids a potential risk of damaging a card when used with certain
cheap readers. This also allows non Scdaemon aware applications to
access the card. The disadvantage of using a card timeout is that
accessing the card takes longer and that the user needs to enter the
PIN again after the next power up.
Note that with the current version of Scdaemon the card is powered
down immediatley at the next timer tick for any value of @var{n} other
than 0.
