Adding OSCam Readers to oscam.server

  1. Access the oscam.server File:
    • Locate the oscam.server configuration file on your OSCam server. This file contains settings for various readers and protocols.
  2. Define Your Readers:
    • Each reader corresponds to an external device (e.g., a card reader, another OSCam server, or a receiver).
    • In the [reader] section of oscam.server, add the necessary details for each reader. Here’s an example configuration:[reader] label = my_reader protocol = cccam device = hostname_or_ip,port user = username password = password group = 1
      • Replace my_readerhostname_or_ipportusername, and password with the actual details for your reader.
      • The group parameter assigns the reader to a specific group (useful for user access control).
  3. Save and Restart OSCam:
    • Save your changes to oscam.server.
    • Restart OSCam for the new reader configurations to take effect.
  4. Test the Configuration:
    • Use the OSCam WebIf or command line to check if the readers are connected and working.
    • Verify that the reader status is “connected” and that the card data is being read.
  5. User Access Control:
    • To control which users have access to specific readers, use the group parameter.
    • Assign users to the appropriate group(s) in the oscam.user file.

Remember to adjust the configuration according to your specific setup. OSCam allows you to configure multiple readers, so you can connect to different card sources or share cards between servers. Happy configuring! 📡🔑
