T-mode stands for transmission protocol. I.o.w. the way the decive 'talks' to a smartcard.
In short it comes down to this:
T=0 -> character protocol
T=1 -> block protocol

Different cards require a different way of communication. Without getting all to technical it basically comes down to this:
seca, conax, cryptoworks, nds, viaccess -> T=0
Irdeto (betacrypt, Nagra? Haven't tested) -> T=1

Parity is also of importance (parity tag in newcs.xml):
seca, conax, cryptoworks = even
nds, viaccess = odd
irdeto = doesn't matter much (because T=1)

EGT stands for 'Extra Guard Time'.
That is the time that is needed to be added *between* consecutive characters sent to the smart card. The obvious: The lower the faster.
The correct value may be found in the ATR ('Answer to Reset') from the card. But I wouldn't worry about it, and leave it at 0. If it -for whatever reason- won't work, the correct value can always be found back in the ATR (TC1 value).
