    Vip 612 HD Solo/Dish 500 installation

    I haven't touched anything, and it was working when I turned the TV on yesterday!!. It wouldn't find any satellites after being left on for a few hours on Thursday (according to the main screen where it said searching for 0 of 5 satellites.) I don't know what happened but I can't complain...

    Vip 612 HD Solo/Dish 500 installation

    Thanks for the reply Jerry and Krell. I am not using the switch as it currently hooked up, just direct coax. So regardless of my non-legacy LNB the 612 should be compatible, right? I don't really need HD, this is just an extra hookup at my shop. This was previously hooked up to a Pansat (sp?)...

    Vip 612 HD Solo/Dish 500 installation

    Well, I ran the 119 to input 1 and 110 to input 2 with individual coax cables (no switch.) The receiver sees satellites (it won't say which ones) on both inputs, but check switch shows nothing. What do I need to do? I am certain the dish is pointed correctly.

    Vip 612 HD Solo/Dish 500 installation

    TV2 display same as TV1 in dual mode.

    I think I understand. Your saying that TV1 and TV2 signals are both sent out of that coax (even though I watch tv1 on HDMI) and, according to which channel the TV is, it will pick up either the TV1 signal or the TV2 signal. Thanks, I think I got it! (But how did the channel change??and...

    TV2 display same as TV1 in dual mode.

    Not sure I understand, but I will try the system info screen when I get home. Any menu I bring up on tv1 is also displayed on tv2. When you say channel, do you mean the tv (air) input channel? (i.e. channel 63 or whatever)? (Single mode and shared view perform fine.) Thanks.

    TV2 display same as TV1 in dual mode.

    I have a DVR HD receiver (not sure of model number) that suddenly started sending the TV1 signal to TV2 even in dual mode. TV1 remote will operate both TVs, but the TV2 remote will not. If I switch to single mode shared view, it responds accordingly, allowing either remote to control both TV1...
