  • Hi,
    i have Linux server running with Unbuntu 10.04 on 6089 stable Bin configured a Smargo which is brand new but has bad freezing on ##y card tried altering poundage and clock and MHZ with no success my reader config is below:


    [reader]
    label = smargo
    description =
    protocol = smartreader
    device = 002:002
    pincode =
    boxid =
    showcls = 0
    caid = 0963
    ecmwhitelist = 0963:3E,42,44,45,47,4E,4F,53,54,61,62,67,68,69,6A,6B,6D,6F,71,72,73,77,78,79,7C,7D,7E,80,8B
    detect = cd
    mhz = 600
    cardmhz = 600
    group = 9
    emmcache = 1,3,2
    blockemm-unknown = 1
    blockemm-u = 1
    blockemm-s = 1

  • Hi,
    thanks for the reply could you give me the link for the windows utility and is the current firmware ok the symptoms i also have are with the freezing the ECM times spike and the reader stops reading the card before i pass over logs will try to change config via utility.

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


    Run the SmartreaderUpdate.exe


    If the firmware is v1.3 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 the kernel settings to Auto and click Apply.


    Set the clock frequency to 6.00mhz.


    Now your done with the Smargo setup tools.

  • Hi,
    can confirm i had v1.3 firmware this is what i did Kernal setting was auto and i clicked apply then went to fixed where i could change the freq to 6 Mhz on Auto Kernal is normal when i go to fixed it shows 6Mhz.
    How do i know if the Smargo is set to 6Mhz.
    thanks
