[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 777737, member: 301161"] You need to provide some details of the aerial system (switching, V-box, etc). And have you got a meter? First I set up my V-box. I put it so 0000 was due south and when it goes east it counts - and when it goes west it counts +. You need a paper to take notes at this stage. Move the dish to your first satellite (watching your meter) and save the position in the V-box as "01". Next satellite "02" and so on keeping a note of what satellites correspond to what position numbers. Then on the Dreambox don't do "[I]all satellites[/I]", you need to set up the satellites individually. Basically you select your first satellite and then set up one LNB that addresses the central LNB on the motorised dish including any switching, etc. if there is any. Set it up DiSEqC 1.2 and add "01" as the stored position. Now select the second satellite you saved in the V-box, select the same LNB and change the stored position to "02". And here's a tip: the stored positions (V-box positions) belong to the satellite; and the DiSEqC commands belong to the LNB. So if you are on 28E and 28E uses LNB #1 and you change a switching command that change will affect every satellite that uses LNB #1, not just 28E you are currently configuring. [/QUOTE]
