Thnk you man

The position numbers for each satellite are stored in the vbox. You setup tuner as advanced, ensure the position numbers you use are the same as the ones stored on vbox.

thanks but how can i find all the sats I am finding some sats manually is there a way i can scan all of them in at once cheers

[abu baniaz]

What do you actually mean by "find"?

Have you set up your tuner correctly? If position numbers are different to what you have stored on vbox, you will be sending dish to wrong positions.

I only got 5 sats stored on the vbox how will i be able to find other sats thanks

[roystheboy]

there is a thing called sat finder on the duo2 how does that work to find sats thanks

[abu baniaz]

Are you able to use the 5 stored satellites correctly?

[roystheboy]

yes I am i click what sat i need and the dish goes there but only 5 i got thanks sorry for all these questions

[timofee]

You should have a remote control with your vBox. You can add more satellites using that remote control.

There is no way to automate this process with a vBox, you have to find save each position one satellite at a time.

Read the ****ing manual, a well known acronym in the repair industry. Excuse me if there is a good reason but why would you not just use Usals which is setup just by entering longitude/latitude location.

Cuz he's got a 1.2m dish with a 36v actuator driven by a vBox.
You tell him to read the manual, Did YOU read the first post?
