I'm not familar with these devices; perhaps it's like a tape 
autochanger? There's one device for the autochanger mechanism (that 
would be equivalent to your reader) and there's another device for the 
tape drive itself (which would be equivalent to the part of the card 
reader than actually reads the card).
