Not all of the predefined transponders are showing signal on Manual scan.
When I change to Single Satellite I have several hundred services when I scan.
Does that make sense?

You are giving mixed messages. Please be clearer. Firstly, you said your receiver was not seeing the tuner, but now you say it's not finding channels.
A manual scan, single satellite scan for 28.2 should find over 700 channels. So this is fine in terms of alignment.
Post a screenshot of menu, information, devices
The picture of the ABM failure shows it's failing on the Freeview provider. What mast is your aerial on you roof pointing to? What area have you set Freeview as in ABM?
You say you are in ROI, yet ABM is failing on Freeview UK. Did you click on Save after correcting the ABM providers?

Which image are you using at the moment? Please do not say anything about previous ones you tried as that is not relevant to fixing what you have now.

Good AB 28.2 is working.
Please stick to image for your receiver. Don't try images for a H7.
If you want to pursue the ABM issue, please answer the question asked about save button. I am sure you made a mistake. Debug log will confirm error. It wouldnt say anything about Freeview unless it was previously set to use it

The frequency ABM uses to gain data for Sky is the Sky transponder. For Freesat, ABM uses the Freesat transponder.
Check that you can receive those two transponder. In signal finder, change the transponder to match the ones in your picture.
What type of LNB do you have? Have you got any other TVs or receivers connected to the LNB? Have you got any splitters connected to it?
Can you please also check the F-plug on your cable.

Just for information, some LNBs have a weird fault which only occurs when multiple devices are connected to it. Might be worth trying to switch power off to the other receivers and then trying this one. (Deep sleep, not just standby)

Thanks,I'll give that a go.
I'm quite happy with the current set up...have my satellite,saorview etc. and the box is doing what I wanted.
Nice piece of kit,quality product.
Thanks all of you for the assistance.

I get the same thing ABM will not work and think it has something to do with the sat tuner on the h17 combo as I also have the h17 twin and abm works the sat tuners models are different.
-
Somehow I have now managed to use sat side but only by selecting freesat in configuration and turning all others off uksky especially !
-
The previous issue was that the drivers did not allow automatic for the FEC value. They were all changed subsequently.
Your issue is most likely something else. Please verify in signal finder that you can receive 11778 Vertical. You have to check that specific transponder, not just the first one it picks. Also, if you perform a manual scan, changing option to single satellite, how many channels do you find?
-
In signal finder Just tried 11778 and scanned but giving 0 services found ! and doing a single satellite manual scan just it finds 407 services so dont know why ABM cant find anything at all and using same settings in abm as my h7s box and h17 twin but just get cannot read data ? But using ABM not using uksky and just with Freesat switched on I can scan and get channels ?

A single satellite scan of 28.2 should get you over 650 channels, so you have a hardware issue which you need to identify and resolve. ABM needs to lock onto the frequency I mentioned for Sky UK. Freesat uses a different transponder.
Some possibilities are:
PSU fault
LNB fault (Some have issues when multiple receivers are connected to it)
LNB skew
Dish alignment
F-plug connection
Cable damage
Interference from nearby electrical equipment.

It cant be anything to do with the dish as when i connect my h7s or my h17 twin they both scan perfectly using abm uksky 28.2e but both those boxes have the same model tuner Si2169D (DVB-S2X) where as the h17combo uses a different tuner rs6060 (DVB-S2X) so making me wonder if this h17combo tuner isnt compatible ?
-
Copied my backup settings from my h17 twin and used restore on h17 combo and its added the uksky channels and all work so tuner can recognise them to play so dont understand why abm wont scan very odd !
-
Other Zgemmas with the RS6060 tuner do not have a problem scanning 28.2 or using ABM. So it isn't the tuner in my opinion. You are saying an enigma2 scan and ABM do not work on that receiver. ABM is a plugin, it does not scan, it reads the tables. Please don't waste your time using ABM until you resolve your issue. Any reports you make to the seller/manufacturer are likely to conflate issues, so just stick to scanning with the function in Enigma2.
Transferring a channel list from one receiver to another, has nothing to do with the tuner. Enigma2 will add them. Even if you had a faulty tuner with blown capacitors, the channels would still be loaded. You can also add cable and Terrestrial channels when you don't have a cable/terrestrial tuner.
I am presuming that you have tried swapping the wires you are using for tuners A and B too. If you have only one wire, I presume one tuner is unconfigured/disabled.
As I said, some LNBs have a fault where when more than one receiver is connected, they exhibit a fault. Please put all the other receivers in deep standby, not just standby, then try your new receiver and check if you can lock onto 11778 v 27500. You dont need to scan, there are no viewable channels. If you get a lock on that transponder, try an enigma2 scan for the whole satellite. If you get less than 650, there is a problem.
After this, try the same tests with one of your other receivers in the same location and with the same wires that you are trying with the H17.

which other zgemmas use the rs6060 tuner as ive got a h2s , h52s , h7s, h9sse, h11s, and both h17 combo and twin and only the h17combo has the rs6060 tuner on any of my boxes ? All other boxes except the h17 combo work scanning with ABM .
