OScam quickstart - add your cccam.io servers as readers

Set up OScam with two CCcam-protocol readers pointing at your cccam.io servers. Define the readers and your user, reload, and your line is live on any Enigma2 box.

Any easy

Why OScam?

OScam is the more modern softcam. It handles more cards, has better logging, and reloads without dropping clients. It talks to our servers with the CCcam protocol, so you use the same details as a CCcam setup.

1. Add the readers to oscam.server

nano /usr/local/etc/oscam.server
# Or:
# nano /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam.server

Your welcome email and portal give you two servers (host and port each) with the same username and password. Add one reader per server:

[reader]
label                         = cccam_io_1
protocol                      = cccam
device                        = <server 1 host>,<server 1 port>
user                          = <username>
password                      = <password>
cccversion                    = 2.3.0
group                         = 1
audisabled                    = 1

[reader]
label                         = cccam_io_2
protocol                      = cccam
device                        = <server 2 host>,<server 2 port>
user                          = <username>
password                      = <password>
cccversion                    = 2.3.0
group                         = 1
audisabled                    = 1

The customer portal can also download a ready-made oscam.server for each line.

2. Allow your user in oscam.user

nano /usr/local/etc/oscam.user

Make sure your local user has group = 1 (or whatever matches your readers).

3. Reload OScam

oscam -d 4096
# Or restart the softcam service:
# /etc/init.d/softcam restart

4. Check the web interface

Visit http://<receiver-ip>:8888. Both readers should be CONNECTED and show CAIDs. Tune to an encrypted channel: ECM time should be under 500ms.

Why two readers

Both readers sit in the same group, so OScam asks whichever answers and keeps working if one server has a problem. Keep both; removing one gives up that failover.
