Hi guys,
I'm a complete noob when it comes to this stuff... does anyone have a complete step by step guide for openbox s10?
I have motorised dish, it's finding nothing!!! Can't find any sats on it... do I need channel lists before it'll work???
A complete guide would be great for newbies as more and more people are getting the openbox!

There are plenty of youtube videos for the openbox s9/s10 on setting up the box
both boxes have the same menus just laid out slightly different on the boxes
-
If you are still struggling setting up the box there are plenty of people on with the same box on here to help you out if you get stuck

Do you know whether your motorized dish is aligned correctly on the arc?

The dish was working about a month ago with my dm500s, so I don't see how it could be off the arc...
Thankfully, I have an old 28.2 dish fitted anyway and I can use it for the mean time... it would just be nice to use the motorised dish...
Do you need to put a channel list on the openbox (like the dm500) or should I be seeing some sats on blind scan without any channel list installed? -

Thanks Phonix, but I'm so confused I dunno where to begin... I don't know what to put on my usb to load onto openbox (in terms of channel lists, cccam stuff, loaders)...
The box just arrived this morning and it is currently in factory condition... -
What method did you use on your old box to move the dish diseq or usals?

download latest image from this post http://linuxsat-support.com/op…-09-2011-a.html#post27535
and then follow this great tutorial from Data7 the menus run along the top on a s10 and down the side on the s9 so dont worry to much as the functions are the same on each box and the latest image has extra menu for cccam
good luck

diseq... and it's what I'm using on openbox... no joy tho.... -
Another really stupid question lads, do I unpack the .rar files (channel lsits, etc), or not?
I know on my old Technomate years ago, they weren't unpacked.... -
just unrar the files and add to root of usb stick without the file folders
-
It's ok lads, just found out I have to unzip the .rar files!!!
-
Thanks Phonix... I feel like a right pain in the ar$e! I'll work my way through your guide... that'll keep me busy this evening :) cheers again!

I've downloaded the latest firmware (s10 NM HD52 Avatar...), I've unzipped it to the root of my usb, I've placed the USB stick into the openbox, I've gone to 'dump by usb', then 'Misc. Files' on Openbox, but there appears to be no CCcam.cfg file to dump? If I go out of that menu and go to 'upgrade by usb', I can see the CCcam.cfg file then! Any ideas what could be wrong there?
-
If they are in rar format then yes extract them, although the Technomate files showed the rar icon they were not in this format.

You need to make your own CCcam.cfg by following the how to below
Open Notepad, then do a File > Save as > Save as type to be All Files > Give it the name of CCcam.cfg. Now add you own info and FTP to /etc
