OVERCLOCKING
       ·  Dreambox and other internal readers

	  For  Dreambox  and  other internal readers the highest possible clockrate will be auto detected. The mhz parameter lets
	  you override the values chosen by OSCam, if it differs from 357 and 358, but usually you will not  set  any  value  for
	  mhz.

	  For  certain	Dreamboxes  (especially  PPC clones) the default mhz parameter leads to slow ECM times and/or "not found"
	  ECMs. By setting mhz to values like 200, 300, 400, ... 1600 you can find a value that works for your receiver and  your
	  card. The higher the mhz value, the slower the ECM time (strange enough).

	  If  you choose the value too low, your card is not recognized (no ATR or "card not supported"). If you choose the value
	  too high, you get slow ECM times. Our experience is that either no mhz line, or a line mhz = 1000 works best.

       ·  Phoenix / Smartmouse reader

	  Overclocking does not work with Windows and Mac OS X.  Set mhz equivalent to the frequency of the  reader.   OSCam  can
	  not set the frequency of the reader.

       ·  Smargo Smartreader+

	  Use  protocol  =  smargo for the FDDI kernel drivers (no libusb needed) or (not recommended) use protocol = smartreader
	  for OSCam's driver implementation based on libusb.

	  Set the reader frequency with the native Smargo Smartreader+ tool (srp_tools).  If not setting mhz and  cardmhz,  OSCam
	  tries  to  set the baudrate automatically, according to the maximum speed indicated by ATR. Overclocking is possible.

       OSCam  tries  to set the baudrate automatically.  A standard serial port has limited baudrate settings, so SC overclocking
       might not work.	When using a serial reader the best way for overclocking is connecting it to a FTDI based USB  to  serial
       port adapter.

       If  overclocking  does not work, verify the effective baudrate in the logfile.  If it deviates too much from the requested
       baudrate, the SC will not be recognized (no ATR) and the value for mhz should be adjusted again.  The higher the baudrate,
       the more accurate the effective baudrate can be.

CACHE EXCHANGE
       ·  pull mode (on request: cache exchange from remote to local OSCam)

	  ECM  requests  will be forwarded to the remote cache exchange partner. If the CW could not be found in the cache of the
	  remote exchange partner, a not found will be answered. If the CW could not be found in the cache of the remote exchange
	  partner but a pending ECM request is open, the request will be re-initiated after the wait time defined in cacheexwait‐
	  time.

       ·  push mode (continuous: cache exchange from remote to local OSCam)

	  CWs from the remote cache exchange partner will be forwarded to the local cache. Forwarding only works while	the  camd
	  camd 3.5x / 3.57x or CCcam protocol connection between the local and remote OSCam has been established.

       ·  reverse push mode (continuous: cache exchange from local to remote OSCam)

	  CWs  from  the local cache will be forwarded to the remote cache exchange partner. Forwarding only works while the camd
	  camd 3.5x / 3.57x or CCcam protocol connection between the remote and local OSCam has been established.
