In Topic: Argolis Smargo Smartreader V2 update problem

28 January 2018 - 20:01

Hi to all,
Today I have issue with this smartreader too. May be it is little complicated when I drive it but anyway I will explain it and you decide if it worth to do it my way.
 
First of all I use Ubuntu 16.04-2 as system to check if my card works.
2. I add the reader in /etc/udev/rules.d/44-persistent-usb.rules (with correct permissions) if don't have create such a file.

    it contain similar staff inside:


# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_cd_rules
# program, run by the cd-aliases-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single
# line, and set the $GENERATED variable.

# USB readers //////////
# Bus 002 Device 011: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC
#  idProduct          0x6001 FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC
# lsusb -v # will give you the device info

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6001", ATTRS{serial}=="reader16",  SYMLINK+="rdrnew"

   here ATTRS{serial}=="reader16" contain the serial name that is find by the

 #lsusb -v 

command where you must find which is your reader.

 

3. restart udev rules with following command:

 #sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger

4. Then make a reader with similar values:

[reader]
label                         = rdr
description                   = Smargo /dev/rdrnew
protocol                      = smargo
device                        = /dev/rdrnew
smargopatch                   = 1
cacheex_allow_request         = 1
caid                          = CAIDhere
detect                        = cd
mhz                           = 534
cardmhz                       = 369
ident                         = CAIDhere:000000
group                         = 1
emmcache                      = 1,1,2,0

   here you have to change the correct values for you t.e.:

 

device = /dev/rdrnew set here the value that you set in persistent_usb.rules file 

CAIDhere set correct caid,

mhz set correct mhz

 

for me this value works

 

then start your oscam and try it.
