Tuner configuration - moves the dish to a different satellite even while recording from one

  • Hi,

    I have just replaced my DM7080HD with DM920, I have got one with the Multistream FBC TWIN TUNER.

    I have decided to accompany it with the TripleTuner I used as a second tuner in the 7080.

    The Inverto LNB (IDLB-QUDL42-UNR2L-1PP) is connected to the box via 2 cables.

    The first, attached to the LNB1 port of the triple tuner, goes via the Dish motor to the Legacy port of the LNB.

    The second, attached to the LNB1 port of the Twin FBC tuner, goes to the Unicable port of the LNB.

    The configuration of the tuners is described below.


    I had an issue that when switching to a channel on another satellite (Astra 19.2), the dish moved OK, but it didn't want to move the dish back after switching to a channel on the primarily used satellite (23.5E).

    Changing the priority of the FBC tuner from "auto" to 1 solved it.

    Everything seems to work now, except current config doesn't prevent it from moving the dish while recording a channel on Astra 23.5E :frowning_face:

    Well and yesterday evening I could see that one recording via the B1 tuner greyed out channels from all the other frequencies.


    Can you please check the config and help me to find what's wrong in it?



    Thanks in advance!

  • Unfortunately the picture you have attached is not available.

    I am currently recording something, so I can't check, but I will Tomorrow.

  • I have changed the B1 config to advanced and it helped, now it prevents to zap to channel from different satellite.

    I would however expect this to work the same way in simple mode, but never mind I am lucky that it works :smiling_face:



    thanks!
