diseqc 1.0 is a 2x1 or 4x1 switch
diseqc 1.1 is a 8x1 switch
diseqc 1.2 is a motor
diseqc 1.3 is USALS

Well then my Visionsat has a diseqc problem then. It will not reliably switch when scanning a new sat. I have been banging my head against the wall today scanning c-band satellites, I have to turn the box off every time I scan a new satellite or it WILL NOT see port 2 of the switch. I have my 119 dish on port 1 set diseqc 1.0, and my cband feed coming from the multiswitch on port 2,again diseqc 1.0.

In any case,tomorrow it is going in my bedroom on the motor I just got back from DMS. I am still having issues, and I think its the Sonicview, it never was any good with a motor in the first place, so I going to try the Visionsat on that dish, and put the SonicView on the C Band/ 119 combo.

Thanks for the info.

Okay.. this is what I have, how do I save the position? USALS is off for me, way off...maybe 10 degrees.

EDIT: Nevermind, I rooted around and found it.....I am a doofus...working on getting the sats all stored in...I got ONE so far...

USALS is broken on this receiver too. In entered it just like I have it in my Coolsat 5000 and it will not hit ANY satellite. I tried to recalibrate it on AMC6 then go west satellite by satellite...never hit a one. Have to do it manually.

It also will NOT switch my disecq switch. I took it out of the loop and the receiver works fine. Put it back in, no signal. grrrrrrr......

Where did you get that receiver?

Actually Ice, to be fair, mine didn't come from Satellite Av. It did come from a Authorized Dealer, though.

no problems

I just posted one way to get them

Hi,

Could someone please post version 1.1 of the Visionsat firmware? I am having problems blind scanning with v 1.12. Thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a copy of 1.11 that Iceberg posted.

Has anyone noticed that the Visionsat freezes up when it goes to a 4:2:2 feed? There are a few on AMC1, and whenever I change the channel to one the box locks up and needs to be powered down from the back power switch. I know that it can't decode the video, but I didn't expect it to lock up.

I'm using the 1.11 firmware.

yep. Bugs the hell out of me when it does that.

Yep. Mine does it too.
