OK, so thanks for confirming the correct, working sketch for me. Now, I know that you wanted the same debugging functionality as in the Serial PN532 sketch, where the serial monitor tell you that reader X is connected to pin Y and the LED blinking. The serial monitor will display the information about the detected readers, such as the reader ID and the SS pin it's connected to. The built-in LED will also blink to match the number of readers detected during the startup process.
?
The LED will blink with a 1-second delay before the first blink, and a quarter-second delay between turning on and off for each blink. There will be a 1-second delay between each blink, making it easy to count the number of blinks and compare it with the number of detected readers shown on the serial monitor.
