If you have multiple identical cards or proxies, use OScam's internal load balancer in oscam.conf to distribute the ECM requests evenly and prevent card overheating:
: Controls how Entitlement Management Messages (EMMs) are cached to update the smartcard subscription without overloading the card chip. Step 3: Configuring oscam.user (Client Accounts)
: The credentials required to authenticate with a remote server [4, 8].
