Great, Glad you got it. I just was posted to the thread you open.

Wooo! Hoo!


Details, what di you do to fix?

[bat01]

If you want to verify 110 just to to installation page and scroll to 110. It should show its locked.

[bandjwilken]

witch kbox set up do you have ?

[Jozelito18]

if u press the SAT,.. it gives you wat u got connected,... lok for bird 110 and like there's only 1 channel in it,.. went i select bird 119.. gives me lots of channels,.. is that right,?,.. also the lnb cable from dish ther 119 and 110, 119 is only connected cause i been told 119 automatic gets 110.. i dont kno if i need to connect dat cable or not,.. let me kno...

Not automatic but you'll need to skew a bit the dish to get the best Q for both sat's.
You'll have the same setup for 110 changing diseqc 2.

Glad to hear that you made for 119 tho.

[jose2001]

Good my friend you are up good

[Jozelito18]

Kbox PRodigy..
ok so best i can do is 92-93 Q 94-96,..
everytime i try move it goes down,.. so i left it here,...

my question is that since my dish has 2 lnbs to connect i only have to connect one of them which is 119 to the switch, or i can connect bird 110 also.... im confuse,.. but is running,... but i check sat,.. sat 110 shows only 1 channel ...

[philman]

Both lnbs need to be connected to the switch on separate ports. Example port1 110 port2 119......If you have two lnbs on your dish two separate cables running two the switch.Hope this helps!

[gibahca]

i can be wrong but as a twin LNB you need only only line going form the LNB to the receiver and get 110/119 at the same time.

Just need to setup the right ports for each(119 port 1 and 110 port2) and have the dish with the right skew to get both signals.

If you got 119 locked. Dont change the elevation of the dish, just the skew angle. Look on the back of the dish. Loosen the bolts and you turn the dish like a steering wheel without changing the elevation. What are the numbers you have for skew?

[Jozelito18]

guess i will let you kno tomorrow , its night already,.. i see wat u mean do.. ithink its around,.. 30-35..
thank u very much for help

[Jozelito18]

or i think its around.... mmm,.. im not sure,...,.. yet,... i let u no tomorrow thank u sir for helpin,..

[Jozelito18]

since ur telling me,.. may i ask whats the correct angle,... i might be off but i set it to i think 70

The Skew varies according to your location. Go to Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com. Put in your zip code, Choose Multi LNB Setup.
In that list you will find Dish 500/+. I guess the skew is the same for the plan Dish 500.

Well done Jozelito, Glad to hear that voice.

[marty napier]

glad you got it working!

Surprized no one else picked it up but you should in menu/installation/options turn all the au (autorolls) to OFF.

If you are using bin 2.11 I'm not sure but I think that this new bin may automatically turn the autorolls off - I'd turn them off anyway.
