Checking the SD card
First I'll check whether the SD part of the Data Logging shield is working alright. This is described on this page.
The output I got was the following:

To make the test work I had to put the baud rate to 9600 and I had to disconnect the connections to pin 0 of the Arduino (and the 5V line) to the RFID reader. I've noticed that I have to disconnect the RFID reader each time I need to upload a sketch. I'm currently still looking how to connect the RFID reader to something else than Digital pin 0 (which is also the RX pin used to transfer sketches to the Arduino).
But luckely my SD card seems to be OK :-)

The uses for the SD card
One way to use the SD card is to add a log entry each the time a token is read (one that's different than the previous one).
The second use for the SD card would be to keep track of all allowed users on the SD card. Not only the token gets logged when read, it also gets checked against a list of tokens that are allowed access. Only when access is allowed, the green LED should light up (simulating the door lock unlocking).
Logging access
This blog will only cover writing a log entry to a log file whenever a valid token is read. Validating the read token will be dealt with in my next blog entry.
I manually created 2 directories on the SD-card, the 'logs' and 'admin' directories.
The 'logs' directory which will keep track of all the access log files. Eventually a new file should be created per day, this will allow easier cleanup of the log files.
The 'admin' directory will contain a commas separated value list of all members with there corresponding RFID token (members.csv). I will also keep track of subscription information in a file called 'subscript.csv'. A last file I need is the 'loginfo.txt' which will keep track of the last log date and the number of days after the subscription ends before somebody is no longer allowed to access the weight room.
I have been going through the example code and copied whatever I needed to make my arduino log every valid token to the 'log.csv' file within the 'logs' directory. The one 'log.csv' file is temporary before working out how to rotate the log files.

Binary sketch size: 15736 bytes (of a 30720 byte maximum)
So I'm passing half of my capacity, let's see what I can still add.
knowledge
Seems like my knowledge of C (or my lack of it) is becoming a slight bottleneck.
