GEOSATpro DVR1000c remove motor position.

[Pixl]

I have a sat on a fixed dish now, but don't see how to remove the motor position from the sat setup.

 

[Mikey11]

you dont need to remove it....just dont use it....

 

[Mr Tony]

but the issue is his motorized dish would still move

I have the 200 which is kinda like the 1000 (I think)....just go into the motor setup and turn it off for that satellite.

oh i didnt know he had a motor....where did you pick that up?

previous posts

also "I have a sat on a fixed dish now" which usually means it was part of a motorized system before. Just going off my hunches (and the fact I've done the same things before)

Yes, I used to have AMC3 on my 8" movable. I put in a dedicated dish and re directed the switches to use it. But the 8' movable moves un needed to the old position when I call up AMC3.
I just didn't see in the menu where to shut of the motor for that sat.

Mis typed model 1100c

I just noticed I typed the model wrong in the title and posts. Duh. It is an 1100c, maybe why no one knew the answer to this.

Since you are controlling a linear actuator, I assume that you are using DiSEqC1.2? If so, you will want to erase the motor memory assigned to the satellite.

• Enter into the Installs Menu
• Select Motor Setup
• Enter 0000
• Select satellite AMC3-C
• Verify Motor Type: DiSEqC 1.2
• Arrow down to Motor Control
• Select: Reset Position
• Press OK to delete the saved position for this satellite position number.
• When Message Box prompts: "Would you like to reset satellite position in motor?" highlight OK and press OK.

Thanks Brian,

I'll give this a try when I get home this evening. I'm a little nervous, last time I clicked this command it erased every sat position in my G-box.

Also if I could ask about the 1100c blind scan. I can limit the freq range to 950-1450 to save scanning freq that are not standard on most N.A. sats when I'm using a 10750 lnb. Is there any different setting needed for the following.
1) Ku lnb set for 10600
2) C lnb set for 5150
3) circular lnb set for 11250 (scanning for 12200-12750)

 

[Mr Tony]

1. 10600 is only for a Universal LNB
2. correct
3. correct

I thought that got corrected? I know on the 200 it did the same thing (950-2150) and a software upgrade fixed it to default to 950-1450

 

[Pixl]

Ice,

Last upgrade I got gave the ability to manually key in 1450 over the top of the default 2150.

But let me try to re word my question. If I am using an lnb other than 10750, will I miss part of the desired spectrum if I limit to 1450?

You may be correct, but I was sure that it was designed to only reset the selected satellite position

To avoid the risk, why not use your GBox and delete the position for AMC3?

If I am using an lnb other than 10750, will I miss part of the desired spectrum if I limit to 1450?

If you are using both bands of a Universal LNB and wish to search all available frequencies 10.7GHz - 12.75GHz, then expand the IF range to match the output of the LNB. Example: Universal LNB with LO 9750 / 10600, change the IF range to 950 - 2150.

 

[Mr Tony]

I think he is saying the default of the blind scan is 950-2150. I know the 200 model had that same issue and then there was a software update that defaulted it to 950-1450

 

[SatelliteAV]

Thanks, Iceberg!

GEOSATpro DSR100c/200c and the DVR1100c all have OTA-SSU firmware updates that default the IF setting to 950-1450. So maybe his receiver has older firmware.

To update, place the dish on Galaxy19 and select "UPDATE NOW" in the OTA Menu.

What software version do you have?

This post
http://www.satelliteguys.us/gloryst...ystar-firmware-update-thread.html#post2396096

shows the newest software with the updates
- Default: Blind Scan Ending IF Frequency: 1450 - Changed to match the most common LNBF LO of the Standard Type LNBF.

also it should fix the lag time with the "no name" channels. It scans them in under 15 seconds

SW: GS03.28
DATA Ver: 01.43

 

[Mr Tony]

You should update it
newest is 3.33

check the link I posted above or do the OTA option

 

[Pixl]

OK, I did the OTA update. Wow what a huge difference. I have an on screen pop up channel menu. Cool.

 

[Mr Tony]

Most of that recent update is testing that I did and forwarded the quirks to SatelliteAv to duplicate

Any quirks you find post them so they can try it out
