Listen Up Octagon SX88+

[jeallen01]

Did you manage to fix this? @Octagon-Germany can you help?

I think that @BeiraMar's receiver must have a hardware fault - hopefully he can get his supplier to replace it.

Edited: because both my SX88 & SX88+ are working OK.

As I reported YESTERDAY!

Now here I have a problem:

The lounge SX88+ successfully updated itself online on Friday with no difficulties

OTOH, the office SX88 (it's quite a late 2018 unit from WoS) has never been able to do the same type of on-line undate as that option is always greyed out in the menus (for some reason that I never found out), and thus I have always had to use the update-by-USB method.

The last time I updated it was some time ago, and it's running f/w V1.05.22 - but when I download the latest V 1.05.35mupg and put it in the root of the same 8GB USB stick that I always use for such updates, and then tried to update with that, I got the following message: "Update file is invalid: damaged or mismatched"

I repeated the download, transfer to USB stick and attempted box update process several times - but always with the same result as above.

Therefore please could Octagon Germany or someone else look into this and tell me what might be going wrong??

Thanks in advance.

 

[Octagon-Germany]

check model number+name on Informaiton menu and compare with the sw file on your USB device.

 

[jeallen01]

Thanks but not quite sure what you meant by making a comparison.

OTOH, here a shot just taken of the SX88 - what can you determine from that?

PS: regardless of what might possibly be inferred from the "Build time" line, this Rx was definitely purchased in late 2018 - and the lack of MTS was the reason that I later bought the SX88+

 

[Octagon-Germany]

pls check your sw file is right one as sx88 or different.

 

[jeallen01]

pls check your sw file is right one as sx88 or different.

OOPS - I think you are right - I think I may have downloaded the SX88+ file instead of the SX88 version

 

[Octagon-Germany]

yes pls check and try with right sw file name as right model sw

 

[jeallen01]

yes pls check and try with right sw file name as right model sw

Many thanks - that worked
(I can only put that "error" down to trying to "multitask" too much at "my age" )

[jeallen01]

Quite so - I was "stupid" (but somewhat distracted by "other issues")

 

[ozumo]

There's always been something not quite right with the DiSEqC 1.1 on this family of receivers. I think my first thread here was about DiSEqC 1.1 problems on a Primo, which persists on every version of Primo firmware available. Who knows, maybe whoever writes the base firmware had a stab at fixing that issue. Not that we're ever likely to get any more updates from Edision... at least Octagon is still pumping out updates.

Just to note, I found on an SF8008 with openATV my troublesome DiSEqC 1.1 works fine, but when using the SX88 style 'define' image I run into the same problems as the Primo. So it appears to be a software issue rather than hardware.

 

[jeallen01]

I know this is not the "basic SX88" thread but I would suspect that, in the following respect, they are probably similar, and so I wonder if someone can answer this question:

Some days ago @manikm909 posted that there is a transponder on 63W (not that I would actually be able to receive that sat here!) and gave the parameters as 11505/H/21000 - but when I try to add a transponder with those numbers for a new sat at 63W in the SX88, I get an "Invalid TP" message.

I have also seen the same message on a few previous occasions when I have tried to add new transponders on some of the "more obscure" (in the UK, at least) sats.

What I find "puzzling" is that those transponder parameters are well within the ranges that the SX88 can (and generally does) handle with no issues - the only thing that I can possibly think of is that there is "something" buried in the f/w which is causing this???

Therefore does anyone know why this sort of thing might be happening??

 

[Manikm909]

are you on the latest firmware?

i will blind scan 63w on my sx88 later tonight (if i can still get it, after my tinkering this weekend) - i think i only did it on my Edision

 

[jeallen01]

Thx and I'm currently trying a Blindscan on the SX88 without entering any transponder parameters, at which it didn't protest - but doubt I would find anything as 63W is almost certainly too low in the sky and blanked by buildings & trees to the West.

However, I don't think "that" is the real issue - which is why does the SX88 f/w consider those transponder parameters to constiture an "Invalid TP"?

 

[Manikm909]

hey - my SX88 (the 4K model) let me add the TP no problem, however, it didnt scan anything in.

the lock on my Edision is showing 9.5db - "BEAM_T19V_W01_0126" - not sure if these beams mean anything, found one on 45w today but no china raido

Thx - seems like the SX88 4k version works "somewhat differently" to my original "basic" version

BTW: stopped the blindscan on my "basic" version after about an hour because "nothing was happening" and the progress bar was still at "Zero" - therefore it seems that there are certainly are "substantial" differences between the two versions

 

[Manikm909]

forgot to reply to this - yes the sx88 is able to get lower SR feeds than the 4k sx88 model.
