There is usually a chart at the back of the motor manual which gives you the correct DISH elevation setting according to the Motors Elevation !
ie
for me...... my motor elevation is set to 51.5 north which means my dish Elevation has to be set to 27.5 according to the chart i had !
this settings can be made prior to the installation along wiv the usuals set up ! if you follow the instructions correctly you should only have to align the dish on the moter to 1 reference satellite ! and this would be done by moving only the motor left or right on the pole cos the dish will be set to its position on the motor already wiv usuals !

Like glenviewjf said

throw up the dish and motor

and then you will have a reference point to work from !

i would use 13e or 28e as a reference point cos they're both pretty strong signals to find in the uk !

here is a link to my very rough guide. . . . . being Plumb is key to a spot on motorised install !

After a recent move i had the pleasure of re-installing my motorised satellite dish ! :dribble:
first i did make sure the pole was plumb

too make sure the pole is plumb i checked both sides at right angles

After everything is plumb and tight with spanners,the pole and brackett is ready to accept the dish !
At this stage the dish should be attached to the motor ! And i always use U.S.A.L.S and set longitude & latitude then drive dish to 28.2e

all that is needed now is to align dish to 28.2e hand tight everything ! go inside and check arc to ensure other sats are being recieved ?
If you got it spot on you should now have the ability to receive all sats with given dish size ! i have 78cm triax and got a good arc 30e-30w

here is finished dish install !

perhaps later i can upload some screen shots from various sats along my arc ! welcome10

though they're not strictly linux boxs they're alot more user friendly wiv regards "end user" .... i think some people like us want to play around wiv the box more than watch tv so were more suited to the in depth linux stuff !

tm5402hd ! slightly over the budget but easy to set up and maintain and now has a 7day epg too ! total VFM in my opinion mate !
same applies to the 6800hd super which i seen on ebay for £5.00 :16_002: unreal ?

Rik

yes i can agree the providers attention maybe drawn to that especially wiv the level of conectivity were now seeing ! But for as long as there is DVB formatt and conditional acces of some sort there will always be a way ! Sometimes its more tricky than others but the concept of encryption is flawed for as long as there is a lock someone will find the key or a way around it history has thus far proved that ! in this case i would say ok the eN Dee S key has never been comprimised but a way round it has ! so on and so forth it will continue forever ! Viva la Revolution ! bring me some heads on sticks ! or just a normal kebab will be fine to be honest ! lol

Rik

we clone the chipsets and or reflash them ? for as long as there is conditional acces then there will be a way ! :06:

hello Reddevil157 i think you need diseq 1 or 1.1 ! 1.2is to drive a motor ! a well trusted company that has made diseq switch for a long time is Global ! so check out a Global diseq switch or technomate do a value diseq switch though the housing isn't as good as the global ! depends where its gonna live i suppose but here by the sea i would want a global with a decent water resistant housing !
ALWAYS switch everything off when connecting diseq switches ! The only time i ever broke/spiked one was while trying to connect a box which was turned on !

would it be possible to write a linux based software version for the humax which would include all the desired features ? is there technicaly a reason why not ? i assume it would be a very experianced and dedicated person or team if it were possible ! there are literally millions of those units out there cos they were sold everywhere from argos to tesco ! £££ expensive though £££ :06:

thanks for the reply Ten ! i sometimes wonder how i've got this far with another display of inability to even search the forum properly ? lol ...... :beated:

sorry to be a pain i'm sure its down to me being an idiot ! i have searched the forum and dont seem to be able to find an answer ! perhaps i'm just not getting it ! ( i have got adult A.d.h.d though but thats another story lol :waaaht:)
i am trying to get my sly card to update using oscam !
So far i understand i need to use mgcamd1.35 to send entitlement to oscam
i just cant suss out how or find anything to go on ! any pointers would be much appreciated ! i think mgcamd is old now ?

cheers
Rik

i have eagle with oscam and sly card

i have tm600 with CCcam_2104+newCS1.67 and tring card !

which would be the best way to use mgcamd1.35 to send entitlements to oscam ? or can i use newCS1.67 to send entitlements

should i download mgcamd135 to eagle from panel and configure internal share ? or use mgcamd1.35 in tm600 to send entitlements to oscam in eagle

i'm getting confused and not sure where to find mgcamd1.35 config file ? is that the same as newCS.xml file

so here i'm asking advice about how to configure oscam to recieve entitlements from mgcamd1.35

:baffle::baffle::baffle::doubt::dribble::embarrassed::surrender::45::47_002:

i quiet like Hi sat ! they sold me a GB sat just around the time 6 in 1 funcards were going out of fashion ! thats when motorized systems became more interesting than ever before ! Suddenly we had the ability to watch different packages from different satellites AND all on one card !

Nice post Ten Below

i rebooted my machine this evening and to my surprise what usualy takes 30 seconds took a few minutes . . .
i had some errors come up and something like mounted 39 times now forcing check !

then a fix procedure seemed to occur and normal boot up ? ? ?

So everything appears to be okay !:congrats:
My question is how can i read all the script that is now off the screen ???? the arrow keys dont move the curser !

i might be able to read what happened ! i wanted to ask for ages but just keep forgetting ! and reading other posts ! i think i must have adult adhd or sommit ?

So i phoned *** ! and i just asked them to switch on my card because i cant watch any movies . .. . . . .. . .they say its strange and should be no reason why not !
i explain there is a message on the screen about the wrong card and suggest my young son may have tamperred with the card as on occasion i have found it in his toy box . . . . . .they switch on the card ! phew i thought i was out of the game then !
now i set up oscam and have everything working fine including local share to another box ! can anyone point me in the right direction for keeping the card upto date emtitlements using mgcamd ? ? ?
thanks to this forum for all the help they give me

usually this message is only on premium channells like sport and movies However it appears on all channells not just premium !
so it means they killed the card enough to make us call ? ? ? what should i ask if i call ! now i'm worried ? ? ?

checked wiv bank and bill is paid
i had more tiers before ..... now just the b ones

card reader /dev/ttyUSB0
