Sammy Spider client
With this program you can connect to a Dreambox CS server or to a Sammy Spider server.
I hope this program is simple to use but here is a small “user manual”:
When you start the programme for the first time, in your server list you will see:
1. server name - TEST
2. IP Server address - 127.0.0.1
3. server port - 679
To start with sharing, you should insert the correct CS server information, as in the example above, and click on “add”.
You’ll also see the “update” button – to change the already added information and “up&down” buttons – to move the servers to different positions.
By double clicking on the server list, on a specific server, you can delete
it... the programme will ask you for a confirmation of your decision to delete
the server.
The client programme determines what kind of configuration it supports,
therefore any additional settings necessary in similar programmes are not
required here - the programme takes care of everything on its own.
Of course, for the sharing, you’ll need to have the Samsung receiver with
an EMUlator in it, connected with an rs232 cable + select the right COM port
in the client programme.
When you’re sure that you have done all of the above, you can start this
program using (re)Start button and after a couple of seconds or so you’ll
get the picture.
==================================================
Sammy Spider Multi CS server
In this program you have more things to set up
This is a classic CS server which supports your programmer in the Phoenix
mode (3.57MHz) as a card reader because of an implemented software emulation for CAMs in the programme.
Let’s start...
If you have a card that you would like to share with the others, do
the following:
In SOFT CAM field choose COM port to which the Phoenix is connected (please, keep in mind that it’s different from the one you selected on a client
programme, in case you are using both of them).
Choose the coding system (it depends on the card type you have).
Mark Phoenix (underneath the COM-port choose the field).
If you have done everything right, in the ATR field, you’ll get the CARD ATR,
and depending on a card type you’ll get the provider list which your card
supports.
In the “LIST OF CS SERVERS’” field add the server list to which this programme is going to connect to, add the server information (same as in the client programme).
Step by step: Server name (as you wish), servers’ IP address and its port.
We are going back to the beginning now: to the right side of “hosting of port” label, write the port number you dedicated for other people to connect to.
When you have done all of this, you can start the server, clicking on the
(re)Start button.
Attention:
If you’re using the server and you’d like other users from the network to
connect to your server but you’re using a firewall, you should set the firewall
to allow the port… if you cannot manage this, shut down the firewall.
The programme allows you to share your card(s) with others, but if you’d like
to use it yourself - add the server as 127.0.0.1 for IP address and port 679
or another one you’re using (this is set up by default).
The server allows others to access your CS server list but not to reveal
the (difficult to gather) list (in detail) to them. You are giving away only
your IP address to them and the information needed to getting the picture.
This way, you are creating a net: if you have 5 servers, and your friend has
5 servers different from yours, practically, you get 10… if a third friend
joins you – 15, etc. As you add the 2 friends of yours (for example), your
list will show 5+2 servers, but you’ll have 15 of them in all.
Once more: if you’re using both the Client and Server programms at the same time pay attention to:
1) COM port settings (Phoenix for the Server and the Client to connect your
Sammy to)
2) The address of your Server in the Server list (127.0.0.1 + the port you
use for the Server) – if you’re using the combination it is enough to tick
your Server alone in the Client programme.
