  • Help needed to set up diseq system on s11

    Setting up a multi satellite system, click Menu -> Installation -> Antenna and Satellite Quick Setting if your going to use the USALS motor setup the Longatude and Latitude options and click Set Motor as USALS on all Satellites then exit.
    If you are using the DisEqC1.2 motor, then all you need to do is ignore the longatude and latitude options and simply click on Set Motor as DisEqC1.2 on all Satellites then exit.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Quick Tip,
    To move to a stored and activated satellite directly, just click the Zoom button, this will then display a list of all the satellites that you have stored and enabled, and then simply select the satellite you wish the dish to move to.


    On a number of channels you can also remove the subtitles, simply by clicking the 'Subtitle' button and clicking Off, this will only work on channels that are broadcasting subtitles as an option, and not on channels that are broadcasting subtites by default, so if you get the message 'No Data' when clicking the 'Subtitle' button, that means the subtitles are being broadcast by default.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    While still in the Installation menu select Satellite List and select each satellite you wish to access, the selection is not a full list but if you wish to add any satellite that is not in the list simply cick the green button to add another satellite.
    Once you have setup you list of satellites, you will now need to scan them for channels, to do this you goto Menu -> Installation -> Antenna Setup and then using one of the < > arrow keys select the satellite you wish to scan from the list, once selected you will need to set the Lnb Frequency the default is universal so skip that unless you not using a universal Lnb, now set the Transponder it would be wise to set this to an active transponder and one you know you are capable of receiving, then you are setup on the satellite you will see the signal and quality levals.


    Now scroll down to Motor type if it is not already set and select your motor type, now click on Motor setting and click Possition Setting the Satellite and Transponder should be as set previously, all you need to do now is set the position number to save the satellite to, for example you could save Astra 19.2east as position 1 -> Eutelsat W2 16east position 2 -> Hotbird 13east position 3 and so on ... now if you dish is not pointing at the satellite you wish to scan simply press eith the west or east button to move your dish to the correct co-ordinates, keeping an eye on the signal and quality bars, once you start to see the signal increase start making small movements untill you get the best possable signal, then click Save.

    If they could sort out a better epg it would make this box a world beater, no sign of it yet.:(

  • cccamd

    Quote from padraig123

    i have entered cccamd on usb stick in cfg file but openbox 9 will not read it. i would liketo know if this is normal with openbox as i have a spiderbox and there is no problem.


    Now for the fun part, if you already have clines you will need to import them to the receiver, to do this use a flsh stick formated in fat32 and place your CCcam.cfg file onto the flash stick, insert the flash stick into the usb socket on the rear of the receiver, then go into Menu -> Network Local Setting CCcam Plug Setting -> Update Files by USB -> SELECT OPTION 1 [cccam.cfg] and click the yellow button to install your CCcam.cfg file, if all goes okay click exit and select Manage Config Files select option 1 [CCcam.cfg] now place a tick to each line you wish to activate, if for example you have 4 clines from a payserver activate all 4 lines you should then see online next to each line you activated with a tick, now you can exit the menu altogether, as you can now start to add satellites and channels.


    Please Note:
    If you add the CCcam.cfg file after you have done a scan, then you will be required to reboot the receiver for the the file to become activated correctly.
