pkcs11-tool.exe Problem with --reader 1 switch

[scottthomas007]

I generate key with the following pkcs11-tool.exe command
pkcs11-tool -l --pin 12345678 --keypairgen --key-type rsa:1024 --id 10 —label "KEY"
But this command works for only 1 smart card reader.
If i attach 2 smart card readers then adding --reader 1 switch generates error that --reader is an unrecognized option.
What can be the alternate switch to use 2nd smart card reader?

pkcs11 has the concept of a slots, not readers.
Multiple slots can be used with the same token.

pkcs11-tool -L
Available slots:
Slot 0 (0xffffffffffffffff): Virtual hotplug slot
(empty)
Slot 1 (0x1): SCM Microsystems Inc. SCR 355 [CCID Interface] 00 00
token label : PIV_II (PIV Card Holder pin)
token manufacturer : piv_II
token model : PKCS#15 emulated
token flags : rng, login required, PIN initialized, token initialized
hardware version : 0.0
firmware version : 0.0
serial num : b75b00144f1f5ef4
Slot 2 (0x5): ACS ACR122U PICC Interface 01 00
token label : PIV_II (PIV Card Holder pin)
token manufacturer : piv_II
token model : PKCS#15 emulated
token flags : rng, login required, PIN initialized, token initialized
hardware version : 0.0
firmware version : 0.0
serial num : c9d45c86501843e2
