-.B : PIN <smartcard selector> <pin code> | %prompt
-IKEv1 uses the format
-.B "%smartcard[<slot nr>[:<key id>]]"
-to specify the smartcard selector (e.g. %smartcard1:50).
-The IKEv2 daemon supports multiple modules with the format
-.B "%smartcard[<slot nr>[@<module>]]:<keyid>"
-, but always requires a keyid to uniquely select the correct key. Instead of

+.B : PIN %smartcard[<slot nr>[@<module>]]:<keyid> <pin code> | %prompt
+The smartcard selector always requires a keyid to uniquely select the correct
+key. The slot number defines the slot on the token, the module name refers to
+the module name defined in strongswan.conf(5).
+Instead of specifying the pin code statically,
 .B %prompt
 can be specified, which causes the daemons to ask the user for the pin code.
