Send a me a private message and I will provide the details.

You are partly correct. The file format is DDR2 and is not read directly from windows. There is an application avaiable to scan your HDD for these files and pull them into windows. The file becomes xxx.ts and then can be played on the PC or back loaded onto the HDD. It seems to work quite well...

Intro I know I am not alone expressing my frustration with the Pansat9200 firmware. Glitchy is an understatement. I have read many forums on this topic and it seems Pansat is unwilling to fix or support (others to fix) there firmware problems. One of my biggest complaints is programming of...

All the STB chip manufactures have application notes, test boards and a vast amount of supporting documentation. Obviously their goal is to sell as many devices as possible. These hardware systems are not tremendously complex. Receive-demodulate-digitize-process-display. Many of the...

I am using a tera term and connected to COM1 and watching during the 9200HD boot process.

This screw is likely a tuning screw used to improve the match of the feed horn to the input of the LNA. It could also be used to tune the magnetic/electric field to be orthogonal. At any rate if you adjust it, there is virtually no chance you will be able to put it back in the same position.

I have the exact same setup with the exact same problem. I have tried the Moteck SG2100 and the Stab120. Both motors strain when the dish is pointed far east or west. What confused me was the dish would move (with less strain) on some transponders. I found this was due to the increased voltage...

The pvr works when started manually but the timer and does not start on the programmed sat or channel. I hope is to have control of channel changes and record start through the rs232 port.

I have the same LNB and had port 1 shorted and blew my cheap switch. Good thing the LNB was covered. I replaced the switch with a weather proof model(see my system desc.)

As Pansat seems to be struggling to publish a PVR function which will actually record the correct Sat/Channel, I have begun another approach. Control through the RS232 port. I have made a connection and recorded the boot sequence output. You can find the new thread here...

In the spirit of testing and the frustration of Pansat 9200 PVR/ their struggles to get this functioning, I have completed some probes of the RS232 port. The goal is to not only download new firmware but also gain control of the basic functions, “record ,play change channel etc.”. We’ll see how...

"I want to win!" What if we could set up a sat pvr recording from our iphone?

Here is some more information from Pansat engineers concerning 92000 pvr. 1.Yes we found the problem of different ch shown. Will improve soon. 2."No Signal " or "Scrambled or bad channel" record does not shut off the function. But recommend to format HDD before event timer program start. 3.Yes...

Clarification to my last post; I was only using the PC on the external HD to check the recorded data. Then I would reconnect the drive to the receiver. Bad news, I believe that the 9200 is using the Trinity HD chipset from Conexant. This would be the CX2417x family of devices. This family is...

If you use the “format” (red button) under the HDD menu, it will possibly erase native eSATA firmare on your external HD and then it will not be recognized by your PC. I would suggest backing up any native files which come on your external HD before plugging into the receiver. I recorded a HD...

I have made some recordings the picture quality is exactly the same as the original Sat. feed. I noticed some audio stutter on the fast forward>X4. The Pansat manual is extremely light in content, so I emailed Pansat and got the scoop on scheduling recording: “So far it is ready for only event...

I made the mods to the board myself. Summary; If you don't have the proper tools (solder Iron small tip and solder braid) don't try this. I work with these small parts for a living so even with experience it's tricky. To make matters worse they are using the new RoHs no-lead solder. This...

IT looks like this is a "remote control issue? I did see remote problems and changed the remote to it's 3 IR transmit setting. I found the keypad "debounce" much better on this setting. As for cross control, I don't have equipment experiencing this problem. I loaded the firmware last night and...

I see that Panarex has posted new receiver firmware (26Mar) on their site, entitled "9200HD Remote Access Improvement”. I have searched and found very little describing what exactly has been changed. I am going to load it tonight and will post any findings. If anyone has any information on this...

On the coax downlink it’s the same as any other receiver. The ohmic drop across the cable reducing the voltage to the LNB and the RF losses of the IF. You can easily calculate the DC loss. The RF loss will be express in dB/unit length. From this and the receiver sensitivity you can calculate the...

I have read this forum a great deal in the past months, It’s time to contribute. I e-mailed Pansat on the release of the PVR function on the 9200HD. Here is there response. “Hi, Yes we plan to make external PVR support program through eSATA port. Have to wait until main chip maker "Conexant"...

Thanks Colbec, I'll give it a shot as I will be on the roof anyway, any thouughts on the Pansat9200HD?

The LNB is Invacom LNB Quadpolar QPH-031 I have used www.dishpointer.com in conjunction with a compass to perform the alignment. I agree the 13 degree offset seems correct for my latitude. Yes, the dish is heavy, worse yet there is “slop” in the StabHH100. This equates to about 2” of LNB...

Location 45.3, -75.8 PC DBS Card Skystar 2 Dish Winegard 1m dish Motor Stab HH-100 I need help. I have been struggling with the alignment of this dish for several weeks. Set the dish due south, choose the closet...
