    RS-232-sharing

    Twin Protocol:
    What's is Twin Protocol?
    It is universal protocol on most boxes, it supports some external dongle to receive CW via RS232;
    In this mode, you can only record current channel if you want to use PVR fuction;


    RS232 Master & Slave:
    1. In this mode, you can connect 2 STB with RS232 cable(PIN2->PIN3,PIN3-->PIN2,PIN5->PIN5),

    the slave STB can share the Master smartcards;
    2. If both Box has smartcard, it can be working as 2 CA;
    3. Bound Rate can be changing;
    3.1 -- 115200: Speed is high, but can only transmit short distance with RS232 cable;
    3.2 -- 9600: Speed is low, but can only transmit long distance with RS232 cable;

    SSSP:
    HD supported:Simple Serial Sharing Protocol
    This Protocol defines the communication between a DVB Box and a gbox by using a
    RS232(serial/com/tty port) with only 4 commands to implement.

      I used to do so with my old humax 5400 and emus such as wallbanger.
      This was the only way for 5400 to talk to pc !
