How to manage cardreaders
I have been running Ariva 200-202-203 for the last five years.
All of them are very easy to connect to an Oscam server.
It is just to open the setuppage for newcamd client and fill in the nescessary information.
With Ariva 4K combo it is a little bit different. I know that many people in this forum are very familiar with OSCAM but perhapes not everyone.
I want to give some advices.
First thing that you have to know is that you should use the webinterface to setup your client. You need to know the IP-adress. You can find it in the Android setup in Ariva 4K.
Use the IP adress followed by :8888 Example 192.168.0.5:8888
Now you will come into the OSCAM webinterface.
Second thing is to set up a reader in OSCAM. The Reader will act as an Oscam Client = Cardreader. Choose Reader in the topline. Add a Reader. You will see some information. There is a pulldown menu with the label protocol. Use the protocol Newcamd. Now I must say that you can not use the built in web-browser in Ariva 4K. It is not able to use the pulldownmenu. Use Firefox in your computer instead, or some other browser.
Third thing. When you should choose Device, which i similar to Oscam-server, you have to set the IP-adress for the Oscam-server followed by a"," and after that, the port adress. Example 192.168.0.59,7000
Fourth ting. On the bottom of the setup-page under Reader specific settings for protocol newcamd, you have to include Username, password and Key.
Key is usually = 0102030405060708091011121314
Fifth thing. Save the settings and choose Restart in the topline menu. There will come up a new page. Choose Restart again. Do not choose Shutdown.
Last Thing. I have found that after a powerloss, it is not always the newcamd-client establish a communication with the Oscam-server. In this case repeat Step five after the 4K has started up.
