    Default comeplex dreambox setup, + setanta

    Hi Guys,

    My dish setup is as follows:

    fox Dish ------ input 3 in disq switch
    C band dish ---- input 4 in disq
    optus d2 -- unpluged for now
    pas8 --- unplugged for now

    I tired setting up on my dreambox DM500 but i couldn't get signal,
    I went to custom non standered sat settings, but I get stuck at low freq and H freq, and I found the disq options, I chose, version 1.0, and I get AA AB BA BB, and numbers, I tried number 4 and BB no luck for the C band dish, I also tried lnb freq as 05150 for low and high and thresh hold with no luck,
    Any ideas what im doing wrong here?
    anyone got it working before?

    also I ran fox dish on a sperate direct cable and got the picutres fromt he orange card with no problem, but setanta doesnt seem to be working? while it works on my iq box, what do I need to set it up?

    Thanks

    What type LNB are you using for the dish you want to set up ?

    e.g. 11300, 10700, or Universal

    I have an exact setup to my sever DM500

    Firsts things first, are you getting the signal directly to the box.

    What I mean is bypass your switch and use ONE LNB input. No aa ab etc.

    Get your signal first. Proove it works. Do this for both the 10700 fox and 05150 for the cband.

    When using the switch the setup is ONLY the AA AB Ba or BB. NOT 1, 2 ,3 4, etc

    Have fox set to BA and your CBand to BB

    Turn fox to 'high' and CBand to OFF

    10700
    10700
    10700 for fox

    05150
    05150
    05150 for CBand

    Turn any CLines off in your CCcam config (I find it takes a lot longer when switching between sats ) (this is only for your tests etc until you proove it's there and working)

    all good now, got the signal, thanks so much for that

    only problems left is
    1- setanta not working on the orange card
    2- the orgnal gamma 1.4v running MCSA on intelsat10 the dreambox is not reading it, I tried with jaycar programer and adding some limes according to this

    with no luck,
    If I buy a dreambox HD will it read the gamma card? no whity, thanks
