Hi Guys. I have just loaded this file on my PC...OSCAM-1.10svn6089-i386-pc-cygwin-libusb-pcsc-webif-OSCAM_LoaderV0.1.4 and tried to configure a smargo on it. I followed these directions to the letter...

1. Unpack the tools zip file to Desktop

2. Plug the smargo into a USB port on your PC.

3. Windows will detect the new device.

4. Do a manual drivers install , pointing to the Drivers_Windows folder.

5. It will prompt for drivers for the USB device , then again for the serial device.

OK, the drivers are installed

UPPGRADE FIRMWARE

Make sure the smargo is plugged into the PC with NO viewing card in it.

Firstly, we need to check the smargo firmware version, so run the SmartreaderUpdate.exe

If the firmware is v1.4 it will say so in the status bar at the bottom of the window and you can close this util,
if not, click the update button and it will apply the update.


CHANGE PORT COM NUMBERS
on your pc

in device drivers > PORT COM & LPT >

you have a new interface : USB Serial Port com (com xx) xx it's a port number

right click > propriety > port setting > advanced >

change : COM Port number

Then I did this to Identify the Bus No.

command for looking N? of BUS:DEV for Oscam loader cygwin

run cmd in windows

type cd c:\Oscam\OSCam <= path folder oscam on your HDD for me it's C:\Oscam

type list_smargo.exe

other windows open with

FTDI
bus:dev 002:003

Device Serial:Reader xxx for me xxx = 227 =>

oscam device = Serial:Reader 227

start Oscam_Loader

chose : smartreader
detect : CD
device : Serial:Reader xxx
caid : your caid card
label : your name card nc bis sly ect

The result was this???

FYI Guys I found this program called ZADIG.EXE and this installed the correct driver for the smargo and it listed ok
