    Default DM800 & Motek H-H Mount

    Any idea how to get DM800 & motek HH mount working i been trying to help one of my mates to get his new toy working,the motor doesn't seem to move at all. I tried using Humax it works fine to just to confirm nothing wrong with the motor.I have tried both diseqc 1.2,usals.

    Hi mate

    You have the JACK motor right? with arm? thats 36v so you will require a converter

    VBOX is what i use. have been for 3 years... find it on google near you

    Hope this helps

    G'Day Cobber,
    That is incorrect. Motek H-H Motor is not a JACK. It works directly off the STB.

    G'Day Cobber,
    Do you have anything between the Box and the Motor.
    Such as Splitter / Multiswitch / DiSEqC Switch or using the Feed Through of another Box?
    You need to have Direct Power Pass to work.

    From what you've posted, With Humax the Motek works OK?.

    So the problem has been isolated to the DM800, As I know nothing about DB's I would re read the set up directions for it and make sure that I had ticked the appropriate switches.

    Cheers, Duck.

    I have a motorised c band dish and a motek for ku... through switch. ku on 1 and cband on 2 from switch.. make sure you have the correct satellite.xml file..in etc/tuxbox.
    You have to setup all sats first.. all ku on lnb1 and diseqc mode 1.2. Commited diseqc command..AA, do not use usals. select position to be stored for later. write them down ..
    All cband on lnb2 ,, commited diseqc command AB, no usals..When you have all sats configured you go to scan them in and store them in positions selected earlier.
    Go to SERVICE SEARCHING, POSITIONER SETUP. Push RED Button on remote and select sat.. put in details, exit to POSITIONER SETUP, select MOVEMENT .. Use green and yellow buttons to move dish... Mine usually stops moving when it gets a lock, when you get a lock store it at previous selected position. Hope this makes sense..LOL

    You need to select the correct configuration for your 22KHz switch here:-

    that is for E1 boxes not the E2 DM800 box.

    The E2 Screen looks like this


    And diseqec 1.2 needs to be enabled for the motek to work..

    All in the PLi wiki for the DM800 as usual.

    I would set up the motek first...plug it direct to dream and try tuning in ku sats first..just do a couple..and store in allocated positions...Then do cband..If you can get them both working direct , then play with the diseqc settings..make sure your AA and AB are the right way around.

    I would use the humax first to set the motek to C1, then hook it up to the dream and when you go to the Positioner setup you should have a lock.. store it at assigned location that you set in the sat setup... then go to the tune page (red button) and select another sat with known working transponders. back to Positioner setup and hilite Positioner movement, then use the Green or Yellow button to move motek until you get a lock.. assign a store position.. same procedure for each sat..
