    GEOSATpro Date acquisition by MICROHD

    I was recently on the road for a week and my MICROHD was disconnected from everything for seven days. When I hooked it back up, my first step was to set the date and time. I was shocked to see that the date was correct! How did that happen? GMT was set to OFF so where did it get the date?

    GEOSATpro Reboot issue solved?

    In another thread is was stated: "There is no risk of reboot looping if you use the latest firmware and never load a user database file that was created on old firmware (before version .13). Remover the power source for a few moments after loading any files to the micro to clear any legacy...

    GEOSATpro Show and Tell

    Several people have shown/described how and what they use to align their dishes. I have chosen to take everything to the source (the dish). I bought a sealed lead acid 12V battery, put it in a lunch bag with the wiring, then took my little 7" TV w/ AV input and my MicroHD to the dish. I watch...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    Thank you very much! http://www.satelliteguys.us/images/icons/icon11.png I have no intention of ever connecting that drive again! I have a 500GB Maxtor with external power supply that has been designated as the MicroHD drive. What is really strange is that it would recognize a Fuji 16GB...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    I had tried another drive that has a second cable that is powered through a USB port which I powered with an external USB Hub. l But now I have obtained a external powered cable (see pic) and tried several different drives. None of them will connect, but the 16GB card will!

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    This gets weirder all the time. The MicroHD recognizes and reads a 16GB Fuji microSD card inserted in an adapter but it will not recognize any other drive. I have tried a powered USB port and got nothing. I then tried an external powered Maxtor 500GB drive and it is also not seen by the...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    Yes, but this is not a GoFlex Desk model. It is a Free Agent Go that is advertised and sold as a portable device with only a single cable supplied. As I stated in a PM, I believe you to be an honest person and you are not out to screw me. If anyone is at fault it is Seagate for not supplying...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    As I stated in post #6 "The cord being used is the cord supplied with the drive at time of purchase." The drive did NOT come with a pigtail. I have two of the drives that I purchased at the same time in late 2010. They both have short gray cables with a USB mini plug. I will PM the S/N to you.

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    Well after a long rest, my MicroHD still will not recognize any drive attached to the USB.power I have also searched far and wide for any info concerning the power consumption of the Seagate FreeAgent Go and can not locate any specifications that mention power consumption. I have owned this...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    Sounds like you may have misunderstood. This drive does not have a pigtail. It only has the standard mini-USB connector and does not require a separate power source. The cord being used is the cord supplied with the drive at time of purchase. I have updated via satellite and performed a...

    Don't know the size since it is a sealed unit

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    A few hours ago I tried to record a wild feed on 103 with my MicroHD. When I wanted to stop the recording, the button would not work, so I powered it off with the remote. When I powered it back on, it would not recognize the USB drove (Seagate Free Agent 500GB). I then removed all power, then...

    GEOSATpro Diseqc switches losing ports

    These were two old switches, one a cheap Sadoun and the other I can't remember and have already thrown it away. I have various old 10750 LNBFs that I have used, plus an Invacom QPH-031. Although I can't be for sure, I believe the ports that have blown have been the one that was last in use...

    GEOSATpro Diseqc switches losing ports

    I know that it is essential to disconnect the power from a receiver before making any diseqc switch changes and have made sure that I follow this rule but I have lost ports on two different diseqc switches that I have had connected to my MicroHD. I think that the culprit is the power...

    Instructions for moving dvr file and converting

    Thanks Guess I am too spoiled and need specific directions to find these files. The drive that am using has other files and sub-directories on it. Now that I scanned the USB drive, I found the files in a subdirectory called ALIDVRS2. It also writes a test file to the root directory called...

    Instructions for moving dvr file and converting

    I can't locate a thread that tells me how to convert a dvr file so I can view on my PC. I recall someone giving the details a while back but I can't locate it. It would be a good "sticky" if someone can help. Thanks
