function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

    //  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    //  Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

    var pkcs11 = new chilkat.Pkcs11();

    //  Use the PKCS11 driver (.dll, .so, .dylib) for your particular HSM.
    //  For example:
    pkcs11.SharedLibPath = "C:/Program Files (x86)/Gemalto/IDGo 800 PKCS#11/IDPrimePKCS1164.dll";

    //  Use your HSM's PIN to login.
    //  If you wish to establish a session without logging in, then set the pin equal to the empty string.
    var pin = "0000";

    //  Normal user = 1
    var userType = 1;

    //  Establish a logged-on user session with the HSM.
    //  The call to QuickSession takes the place of calling Initialize, OpenSession, and Login.
    success = pkcs11.QuickSession(userType,pin);
    if (success == false) {
        console.log(pkcs11.LastErrorText);
        return;

    //  Do whatever is needed in your PKCS11 session.
    //  ...
    //  ...

    pkcs11.Logout();
