Basic newbie setup procedure for VU+ Duo for Dummies

[Sicilian]

Ok here's a quick Newbie setup procedure for the VU+ Duo, hopefully should get you through the basic setup.

1. Unpack receiver
2. Install SATA HDD if you've bought one to install.
3. Choose your image and prepare on USB stick.
4. If your using a motorised dish prepare yourself with your longitude and latitude from here http://www.dishpointer.com/
5. Connect to TV etc..
6. Follow USB flash guide here http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...ng-a-USB-stick
7. Follow this install wizard on screen through choosing your resolution etc..For tuner setting see attached screenshots, set your own longitude and latitude. One screenshot if for fixed dish, other for motorised dish. Don't bother with scanning, select "no, manual scan later".

Fixed dish settings: -



Motorised dish settings, change longitude and latitude to suit your area: -



8. Once setup is complete transfer your bouquets to the VU+ Duo using dreamboxedit. Enigma 2 settings/bouquets can be found here for UK only and motorised http://www.world-of-satellite.com/fo...gma-2-Settings , choose which you want. I've attached a screenshot of the correct dreamboxedit settings, just change the IP to suit your receiver. This can be found in by Pressing Menu > Setup > System > Network.



8A. Once settings/bouquets have been transferred re-check your tuner setup, it sometimes changes.
9. Once all the above is completed and your watching FTA channels, you will need to initialise the HDD is you installed one, press Menu > Setup > System > Harddisk.

The above should get you watching FTA channels.

Once the above has been done look around the menu's and ask your questions on the forum

Hopefully I haven't forgotten anything lol! Post here if you feel something more should be added.
