I have a Ferguson Ariva 200 receiver.
Now I have bought a second Arriva 200
The installed Software at delivery was V1.06B2
I installed Software V1.06B2* in both of them
I have installed Fausto V1.45 in a computer in the basement.
I have an old Multiprogrammer V3.5 connected with a serial cable to this computer. I run it as a cardserver with my Canal digital card inserted in the reader
It works OK to use both Arriva 200 with Scandinavian Canal Digital at the same time.
I keep firmare V1.06B2 because with that Version Viasat cards works in Arriva 200 (But it can't be shared)
It can be a little bit tricky to set up Fausto.
But there is a lot of readme-files included in the software
I prefer to run Newcamd.
The two Arriva 200 must be set up as clients.
They must have different MAC-adresses and also different IP-adresses. They also need unique User names and passwords.
Port number can be the same for both receivers
You also have to set up the IP-adress for the PC used as server
To get the PC-server to work you must first set the programmer to Phoenix mode. In my case it can be done be making a short BAT-file. (I if you have another card reader, check your manual)
In the example below the programmer is connected to COM1:
The program for the programmer, is located in the folder Multiprog. The program Fausto, is located in the folder Fausto
c:
cd\
cd Program\MultiProg
MultiProg.exe COMPORT=1 MPSET PHOENIX MPSET POWERON
cd\
cd Program\Fausto
Fausto.exe
cd\
cd Program\MultiProg
MultiProg.exe COMPORT=1 MPSET POWEROFF
cls
In Fausto use Tab "Cards" to check that the card can be read.
Leave it connected if everyting works.
After that, choose tab "Server" and sub tab "Configuration"
Edit the file: FaustoServers.cfg
To set up server write the following line:
N: 192.168.0.003 8000 0102030405060708091011121314 {0B00/002F60}
Remark 0B00/002F60 = Canal Digital
Set up users and passwords (Must match the Arriva 200)
U: Karl 123456
U: Gustaf 345678
Save FaustoServers.cfg
Verify it. Be sure to not have any other lines starting with N:
Move to Server sub tab Manager. Load the configuration. Use load button. A line will appear at the screen. Highlight it and press button Start.
Now you can start the Arriva 200, In the edit screen for Arriva 200 choose Ping to make sure that you have a proper network connection
Next button to press is connect. you should get the respons "Connected". Exit the menu and you should be able to watch the subscribed channels.
How to make an easy startup after everything works.
Arriva 200.
In the edit screen choose Autoconnect. Everytime you start Arriva 200 it will try to connect to the PC-server
PC server
Move to Main Monitor tab. Right click on the screen. A menu will appear. Choose autofunctions. Put a mark for Autostart Reader and Autostart Servers
I the menu there is also a choice for Main functions. I am not quite sure about this, but with the 3 first choices marked, it seems to work. Turn off Fausto. The programmer will be turned of if you choose the bat-file described earlier in this text.
Next time you start the bat-file, the programmer will be started, the card will be read, and the server will start.
Remark: If you choose a channel from Canal digital and the card is not valid for that cannel, the card will lock up so you have to stop the server, reset the card, and start the server again.
To avoid this use the commandline in FaustoServers.cfg
To ignore unsuscribed channels. See example below
I: 0969 {0B00/000000} 8000
I: 11FE {0B00/000000} 8000
I: 106F {0B00/000000} 8000
I: 0A90 {0B00/002F60} 8000
Or simpler. Remove all thoose not suscribed channels from your receiver
