cardmhz
Code: Select all
INTERNAL REEADERS
If you use cardmhz >2000 OScam will switch to PLL clocking. Internal readers of boxes from Dream Multimedia GmbH can be clocked more precise with it.
The used cardmhz should reflect the highest frequency of the PLL crystal in the internal cardreader. OSCam will calculate the best PLL divider that comes nearest to the wanted user card speed specified in cardmhz.
For models with PPC cpu use cardmhz = 3150, for models with MIPS cpu use cardmhz = 2700. Exception is the DM7058, you should use cardmhz = 8300.
E.G. You have a dream 800 HD PVR, thats a mips so you should set cardmhz to 2700. We got a nagra card that should run on 5 MHz. If
you want to clock the card ok just use cardmhz = 2700 an mhz = 500. If you want to overclock it use cardmhz = 2700 and mhz = 900.
Now your card will start to run 9 Mhz. Better monitor it! An overclocked card could run hot or crash suddenly!
Keep in mind that most internal readers of non-dreamboxes clock the cards automatically and copletely ignore any user clockspeed setting. But you should set cardmhz and mhz anyway, as its still used to calculate the correct timings in OSCam. If you set cardmhz/mhz correct the timings will better match with the actual (automatically) clockspeed of the internal card reader. As for a result slighly better ecm responses or more stable functioning.
Dont expect magic here, only overclocking the cardspeed can reduce the ecm response time. Bad timings can only delay it or make the card responses instable!
