Thanks for the reply I have been trying for a week to do this with different configs and guess what it now works. It now works direct with CCcam

I also have tm 9100s with the same problem and I have use newcs to read the cards from the internal slots what do I need to add in the newcs config to read the card reader.

Thanks Coley

To my knowledge a TM9100 can not use it's serial port for a pheonix reader.

Try add these lines to your CCcam config on your Dreambox.

PHOENIX READER PATH : /dev/tts/0
PHOENIX READER PATH : /dev/tts/1
PHOENIX READER PATH : /dev/tts/2

You may also need to add this with the frequency of the card

SMARTCARD CLOCK FREQUENCY: /dev/tts/0 frequency here

Never tried a cas3 though so using that interface may have its own issues.

The cas3 needs to be connected to both usb and serial port 9 pin striaght through(not null). start cas software select utils and pheonix set to 6mhz. Ok thats all the conections made.

You must have cccam 2.11 from the blue panel
you now need to edit cccam config best way to delete all the crap from it so its only got what you need in it
copy and paste this into the var/etc/cccam.config file

SERIAL READER : /dev/ttS0
CAMKEY : /dev/ttS0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
CAMDATA : /dev/ttS0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00




If that dont work try this
PHOENIX READER PATH : /dev/tts/0
CAMKEY: /dev/tts/0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
CAMDATA: /dev/tts/0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

save back to your dm
and thats how I did it
hope it helps
