    Motorized Dish USALS & Octagon SF4008

    Hello to all,

    I have a problem with motorized dish USALS & Octagon SF4008 (SatDreamGr) 2xDVB-S2X + DVB-T2.
    Tuner A = Diseqc 1.1 => 10 LNB => 52.0, 45.0, 42.0, 39.0, 28.2, 23.5, 19.2, 13.0 and 0.8, 5.0 west.
    Tuner B = USALS 68.5 east => 45.0 west
    Tuner C = DVB-T

    1) If the motororized dish is on the 9.0 east (tuner B), I choose a channel on the 4.8 east (tuner B) no problem the motor move.

    2) If the motororized dish is on the 9.0 east (tuner B), I choose a channel on the 13 east (tuner A) the Tuner A is active and the reception is ok, but now if I want go to a channel on the 4.8 east (tuner B) the motor don't move. It have to choose a channel on the 9.0 east and after that I can go to the 4.8 east...

    This installation and configuration work fine since a few years with : Ultimo4K, ET10000, Solo4K.

    Sorry for my poor english and thanks for reply.

    Did you tried swapping tunners? Eg A to become B and B to become A?

    Re: Απ: Motorized Dish USALS & Octagon SF4008

    It happens with any locations from Diseqc1.1 Tuner A and also with Tuner C.

    Example :

    If the motorized dish is on the 7°west, I select a channel opened with tuner A (any location) or tuner C (signal ok channel open), now I select a channel opened with tuner B (any location exepted 7°west) the motor don't move.

    I have to return on a channel from the 7°west (the signal is Ok, the channel is opened) and then I can select a channel on an other satellite (received by tuner B), the motor is moving.

    One more Time sorry for my poor english.
    Thanks

    Hi elbandido,

    Thanks for your attention.
    I send my satellite.xml with PM, I hope that work!
    I explain a little bit more...

    If the motoriezd dish is on a satellite, if the box receive a channel on this satellite and if I select a channel on a other satellite opened only with tuner B there is no problem the dish is moving... and I can do that on all the satellite received (with Tuner B only) without problem.

    But if I select a channel received with tuner A or C, after that if I want to go to another sat with the motorized, I must choose before a channel on the last sat where my motor was before.
    If I cannot do that the motor don't move.

    My install :
    Tuner A = Diseqc 1.1 => 10 LNB => 52.0, 45.0, 42.0, 39.0, 28.2, 23.5, 19.2, 13.0 and 0.8, 5.0 west.
    Tuner B = USALS 68.5 east => 45.0 west
    Tuner C = DVB-T

    Would like to try and make my receiver do the same thing if possible.
    Please also send the settings file in etc/enigma2. Make sure that it has no personal information like Facebook or other login information in the settings file. Send both files, and I will try to duplicate the problem. Thanks.
