Firmware Update Tool

How to for windows
Smargo

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
I recently setup my orange Fox card in a smargo card reader with oscam as a card server. I've got acamd as the client running on windows (under TVSource/7MC) with a TBS DVB-S2 Dual tuner. All working ok, just trying to get better channel change times, and the occasional 'service is scrambled' message. Currently around 3-4 second channel change times and i think i can do better.
I've got the Smargo installed in windows, pass through as a com port to my VirtualBox Ubuntu Server, which is where oscam is running addressing it as a phoenix (com port). Changing the mhz doesn't seem to have much impact. I'm getting around 330ms ECM response times.
I did try passing the USB device through, and using the smartreader protocol with oscam, but this gave me around 600-700ms ECM times..
Any advice appreciated.
PS, reason i'm using OSCam is i believe its the only one that will update the card with EMM updates, am i wrong?
