Dish 1000.2

[mor on brain]

I need an expert opinion on this, coz im not sure if I did it correctly. I have a 1000.2 dish of course that has 3 outputs and one input. For my friend he used the 3outputs for 1 Receiver/TV, but what I did since I have 3 receivers/TV I connected each output on the LNB to each of my receiver...but only two are working with channels, what could possibly be the explaination on this, is this fine or not. TY

[bigevil69]

it will work that way
just make sure that the cables are all attached to the out ports on the lnb

[gibahca]

switch the cables try to use the one working in another output.

[mor on brain]

but what about the reception, is it like one receiver is only getting 119 and other is 110 and so forth... thanx anyway

How to setup your Dish1000.2 with a FTA Receiver

Although it is a common to think this dish does not work with a Fta Receiver of any type, this thinking is wrong, after testing, It is possible to run as many as 4 receivers of any type off this system, 119/110/129.
You will also need a Dp44 Switch, or this will not work, nor have enough power to move the LNBs to Vertical/Horizonal points.

Here is all the information you need to get started:
1) first after mounting the Dish vertical, with a level.
2) setup 119.0w with the second output connection, run your cable to your Unit only(alone) for setup.
3)connect this cable to port 1 of the Dp44 switch, which should be mounted within 2 feet of the first Unit you plan on using, also hookup the power supply on the Dp44 switch.
4) after you have 119.0w locked into your receiver, its time to add the additional birds.
5) connect the cable 110.0w to port 2, on the DP44 switch, and setup the Antenna settings, you should follow the Baiscs of (OSC-Dp) on all these Birds.
6)connected the cable to 129.0w to port 3 of the DP44 switch, and follow again the setup. Remembering to SKEW the dish, to Tweak The Dish as you go, a (satellite meter) will help you do this. But is not required.
7) also this Dish1000.2 has a additional port to hookup (1) more additional Dish, this dish also need to have a Dp Single LNB , or it will not function correctly.
8)If you use a 18X24 Single Dp LNB on an older dish. This can be connected
(1) way, because the (port in) on the LNB is normally (Disabled), without a Hardware upgrade.
9) Connect the additional LNB dish, possible pointed at 61.5w, to port 4 of the Dp44 switch, and finish your Antenna setup.

10) Antenna Setup as follows:
Port 1---119.0w, OSC-Dp Type 12239 Diseqc none
Port 2---110.0w, OSC-Dp Type 12224 Diseqc none
Port 3---129.0w, OSC-Dp Type 12282 Diseqc none
Port 4---61.5w, OSC-Dp Type 12297 Diseqc none

Since this is a Dish (pro), you are using the PRO Techology, please make sure you follow the information posted in this thread.
When connected to the Dp44 switch, it is totally possible to run 4 FTA units from this system, it has been tested as does work.

before the N3 I had 99S/99Q that's w/out the Ihub about a month ago, but when I switch to the Ihub thing, I still have pretty nice S&Q but I get the "no service or scramble" on my screen... do you think I should turn down my dish and re-aim it again just like resetting it?

[RICKSBEACH]

there's no need to do anything with your dish if it worked good before..
it could be a iHub setup problem

[mor on brain]

thnx ricksbeach, i considered that but i dont have a DP44 and I only have a SV360P so the 129 will be useless for me. I have a Dish5oo but since the 1000.2 has 3 ports I decided to use that for my 3 receiver/tv.

[basscat02]

Are you getting 129? You can also add any sat you want to it by using the single input, like 91W, and all 4 will come through

[mor on brain]

Probably the Ihub set up, that's what I suspected too. If I may ask, when clicked the ok on the apply on your ipconfig, it took how many seconds and what did it say afterwards...did it say connected or anything or it went back to the installation menu showing the dish setting on top with ipconfig at the bottom.

[mor on brain]

wow I didn't know that, I thought since I only have a 360premier 110 &119 are fine....do 129 & 91 offer other channel aside from 110&119 offers?

[basscat02]

Answer to first question...it flashes for about half a second and goes back to channel 2nd question... 91 W is BEV and has several hundred channels up. 129 is mostly HD and very little happening

What are the three receivers that you are using. Unless they are NFusion/SV360 or 8000/KBox, none of the other receivers will work at the moment.

Since you said two receivers work and one does not work, I am wondering if that one was not one of the above.

[basscat02]

Good point VG
