Need help with my own S*y Card [white]

Please forgive the intrusion onto the thread, but I am in a similar situation. I have my own S*y Card [white] which has been activated in a real S*y box. I should like to use it in my Vu+ Solo2 box and have been scouring many forums to find out the simplest way to do this. All I want to do is to share in my own home, specifically in an upstairs bedroom that will have a cheap [F5] box on my network. At 70 years old, I sometimes struggle, but know where to put Cccam and its config file, but I have been looking around for weeks trying to see what I need to do. Any help would be gratefully received. It's a good job I have so little hair on my head, because the head banging on the wall would have dire consequences for a fully hair headed person. I am also quite willing to buy an external card reader if this is needed, but I am using both USB Ports - WiFi dongle and Pen Drive for EPG and Swap File. Please help if you can. Regards.

Sadly, I am absolutely certain that it's paired. Box is Amstrad, Model is R008.063.68.00P, Rx ID is B 1E09 46A9. The image in use is Helios 001 loaded yesterday and working just fine. Thanks for the response. Regards.

Thanks to all who responded. I have been trying to get it running this morning, so far no luck. As the extended family are due imminently, I will have to quit for today and will go again [hopefully] tomorrow. I do have an old, SD only, box so, should I get this to run, I will attempt to pair it in that box. I can, temporarily, live without HD, but it would be useful if I can get anything out of the original card outside of the original box. Thanks again. Regards.

Good Morning All,

Well, I have continued to try - and fail - to get this running. This morning, I "updated" the box and ended up with a permanent spinning VIX reboot scenario, should have read forums before doing it today :( This, however means that I "bit the bullet" and did a fresh Helios 001 install and did not use any of my backups to reload other "stuff", so I effectively have a "new" box to start with. I will try to get this running in very small steps if I can. Is it the case that a CCcam config - no Oscam - with just 2 lines like this:

BOXKEY: /dev/sci0 AA AB AC AD
SMARTCARD CLOCK FREQUENCY: /dev/sci0 3570000

will work with the card in the upper slot? I have generated the correct Boxkey from the S/N of the S*y box and, of course, will replace those shown above.

Sorry to be so poor at this stuff, but it seems that the more I discover, the more I need to learn and it's not easy at 70 :)

Thanks and regards.

Well, I don't know what on earth I have done now. Both install ipk from USB and load ipk's into tmp then look to "install local" seem broken :( I have loaded Helios.004 from a USB stick, no problem there, but putting 2 ipk files on the same stick after formatting it don't get seen to be offered on a switch off/on. Perhaps I need to learn not to mess with something that worked - well FTA channels anyway. Regards.

Thanks to all - again - I have just d/l Helios version 006 - I will start afresh again and see what's what this morning. I did transfer into tmp folder, but when using vix/blue button, no files were shown. I put them on the same reformatted usb stick that I used for flashing and, whilst having the box on and tuned to bbc1, no popup to show install offer. Thanks for the green button tip MK, if it all turns out badly this morning, I will quit for a while and maybe even try an alternative image downstream. I have used nothing but Vix since I bought the box from the forum sponsor back in December 2013. Regards all. M.

Good Morning, again, just to report that after flashing Helios006 and carefully following all the steps - again - Ta Da IT WORKS on CCcam. All SD channels are clearing. It may not sound much to you really experienced guys, but for a 70 year old linux noob, I feel really - and I mean REALLY - pleased with myself. I will investigate using Oscam another day I think, I don't want to spoil it. The original query of how to get S*y upstairs demands Oscam, so I will attempt this again sometime soon. Very many thanks to all of you for your patience. My very best regards. M.
