Single Tuner : Disecq Switch to motor and fixed dish

[ja5]

Na the dish was completely setup sometime ago and just went and fine tuned before i done the switch.

It now back to 0,8 and locked in grr the dish is moving fine so im thinking either switch isnt working correctly or i missing something

If the dish moves, the switch is fine.
Did you setup USALS correct (lat/long)?

yep usal setup correct lat and long. What strange is on say 23.5 some channel wont lock, then il try a few more and more to one locks then after a few have locked the one that wouldnt now lock.

Im thinking if i wired it up wrong then it wouldnt work at at all???

Depends: are the locks on the correct channels/sats?

yes mate all on the right sats. strange i managed to get it locked in then kept trying each sat to i can get a channel locked, so from 0.8 to 23.5 they all lock in now, but if i go in to tuner config and exit i have to start over.

Plus iv tried record from fixed but other lnb doesnt seem to be connect, tried all the settings and that just wont work grr

To windy to get up the ladder so im thinking i must of done something wrong as my usals setting before i used the switched worked 100% fine. or dodgy switch but im out of ideas now

Thanks for you help mate much appreciated

Well, if the dish was OK before I wouldn't start suspecting it now.
Maybe double check wiring/ports (both on the switch as in the setup)?

Yeah looks like il have to get up the ladders again, I really do read up how things works before i do anything so im sure im right lol well i know my dish is correct.

It just got me thinking if i had the wired it wrong i wouldnt get anything but i will let you know either way and i do have another switch to try too.

Cheers again

well its all my own fault had the wires round the wrong way doh!! Not worth lieing is it lol

But bit annoyed as when i used to build engines i always double and tripple check grr

Cheers for the help rob a quick test and seems im working but not fully tested lol
