Sending SIGHUP Signal to Cardmgr

I am looking for a way to send a SIGHUP command to Cardmgr from a shell line.

I have a card that does not initialize properly and need to manually
issue the following sequence of commands in cardinfo to get it
recognized:

1. Reset (reset under socket selector, not the other reset)
2. Eject
3. Insert

I would like to automate this process from a shell script and I
believe I know how for parts 2 and 3.

1. ?
2. cardctl eject 0
3. cardctl insert 0

I'm not sure how to send that first reset command.  The cardctl reset
command is not what I'm  looking for, I need to send a SIGHUP signal
to cardmgr (like the reset button under the socket selector does). 
Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks.
