My Channel Master 1.2m System Fully Installed

Hey guys, i decided to get back into the Satellite scene after a while and wanted to share my install which i completed today. Just took me a day alone getting the positions into my V-Box using an Alsat GBox but run into issues, finally realised it was the Alsat at fault so switched it out with a Moteck i just managed to buy and all went well in the end.

Currently tracking 53E - 30W, some positions are duff around the arc so i have stored 31 positions.

So my gear is as follows:

VU+ Ultimo 4K [1TB]

Moteck V-Box [99 Memories] [Updated to Primesat PR1200]

Jaeger SMR 1224 36v Motor [Brand new]

Channel Master 1.2m Dish

Inverto Twin c120 LNB

Raven Feedhorn

3m 76mm Pole Galvanised & Triple Powder Coated

X2 450mm Standoff Wallmounts Galvanised & Triple Powder Coated

OpenBH v5.3.016

Ive never installed a system before so I purchased the scaffold to install the dish, i managed to get it on 0.8w and round to 39e but then had problems trying to track the arc properly so bowed out and called in someone to do it due to back problems and patience issues :D

I took some pics along the way so i hope you like them.

I bought if from a member off another forum.

It was satsuk but a different member, he has another one for sale but he has just reconditioned it ready for sale. Thinking of buying it as a spare. I can let him know if you are interested in it!

I put it all up myself and part aligned it but got somebody else to finish getting tracking on the arc. Ive took the scaffold down now so i cant take pictures, Besides my angles will be different to yours. I put my el angle at around 37.8 if that helps. Declination...i used a meter to peak the signal on 0.8w.

Same hear u got the movies open 28 east

No, i tried yesterday, i thought UK was working,i emailed the provider but their reply said only sly uk works in asia?? Maybe they was referring to the gt media boxes? so unsure. As for vix i used that image on my sat box years ago but could never get my vpn working so i moved over to blackhole for a while then onto openbh and the rest is history.

Ive got some strange behaviour with my moteck v-box. I cannot power it off either by the remote or the front panel. The 2 coax cables that go to the tuner, 1 from v-box to reciever and 1 directly from the lnb are just plugged into the back of the recievers tuner at LNB "IN" both outputs are the same correct? Now... if i unplug the coax from vbox to reciever, i can now power off the vbox via remote or front panel, once its plugged back in i cannot?

Now... if i swap around the coax cables on the back of the reciever, again i can power off the vbox as normal via remote or front panel but having it this way....when i change channel on my reciever to a differnt satellite the vbox wont move the dish?

I never had any issues on my previous install, am i missing something here? or is something broke?

Cheers.

What u got open I have 39 east to 30 west open not as much as we used to get a lot shut down nowerdays days do u bother with keys

I started checking today what i can get, currently at 1 west making my way around. I have noticed some have gone dark but my line allows me to open others which i couldnt before. I mainly spend my time at 19e and 1w. I do update my keys regular with levi45 addon.

Mine is a moteck which is exactly the same, I actually bought a new primesat 1200 remote from SSS the other day hoping it would work with the moteck and it did :)

As for my issue, the electrical block was replaced in my 1224 motor see pics, it was replaced with a new one and it was questioned whether it was the right ampage. Im not a sparky so i would need some clarification on this. I have attached pics of the old and new terminals but it could be something else.

Is it ur ac power from ur plug at the mains dose the v box switch it’s self off by any chance

Not that i have noticed, i was just reading the manual and found something, see pic. Like i mentioned earlier, if i switch around the cables at the back of the reciever [Tuner LNB inputs] i can power it off as normal but leaving it this way wont move my dish on channel change.
