Has anyone set up a Humax HDCI-2000 with a Motorised Dish without problems?
I am sure it is 'operator-error' but I can't for the life of me see what I am doing wrong.
When I first had it, I connected it up to my four separtae LNB's on a Toroidal dish using Diseq switching (A,B,C,D). It worked fine, no problems at all.
Then this morning I decided to connect up my motorised dish using Diseq 1.2 and again it seemed fine at first. I first reset the receiver to default settings then stopping the 'wizard' and changing to motor-dish etc. I tuned in Astra 1 OK (I had preset the motor dish posistion using another box) and did a channel search. All was fine.
But for the life of me I cannot get it to search on any other satellite. Even though I can move the dish to any Satellite OK and save the dish position (incidentally I hate USALS and prefer to do it all 'by hand'). But when I have located another satellite it will not then let me do a channel search, it only allow me to do a search on the original Astra1 Satellite, which was the first one I tuned to and always appears in the Satellite list when I try to search. It seems to be locked on just the one Satellite for channel search mode. Any sat can be chosen for dish-moving, but will not allow searching on any but Astra 1.
In the 'Edit Satellite' page, under each new Satellite I try to tune in, is a greyed-out 'disabled' alongside the 'activate' tag. But no way can I get it to change to 'enable.' The menu cursor just by-passes this option and can only 'save' the settings. Astra 1, which IS shown as 'enabled' is the same. I cannot access this tag to change it to 'disable'.
Can anyone throw a light on this?
Thanks a lot.
