Sorry, not sure how to enable fast scan, can't find it in any of the menus

[plasterer]

Try Cable Provider to 6887
Fast scan should be under cable provider on Blade

[redlegsy]

Only options under cable provider are all or one transponder.

Still no joy, try again tomorrow!

It's not going to beat me!

Hi Guys me again sorry.

I cannot find fast scan on the blade menu. Under cable provider i have scan mode with the options of 'complete' or 'one transponder'

Any ideas?

[thered]

out of the two if you want to run a decent scan go for complete the transponder one will only scan 1 frequency

[redlegsy]

If it helps solve the problems I have << ? >>
No EPG info
on the dbox screen

[portbhoy]

It will say that if it hasnt been scanned yet, blue button set your location save that. Then like red says complete scan

[redlegsy]

Thanks guys for your help.

I have set my location set scan mode to complete but still get after about 10 secs of scanning 'no channels were found please execute a scan' so i rescan and after 10 seca approx the same message. I'm going round in circles!

Any help is very much appreciated

Check your signal strength, RED > BLUE. The SNR needs to be above 55,000 before it will find channels, and about 62,000 before it will find all the channels. Anything in between will result in missing channels or freezing channels.

If the SNR is ok, reflash the image and try again. Sometimes the image can lock and go into 'read-only' mode and it doesn't save any settings. A reflash will cure this.

Thanks I will reflash the image signal ok max 62400 min 62232

Yep good advice there, I had this with someone the other night and it turned out to be a signal problem caused by the poor fitting of a connector. Most of the day to suss that one

yeh ive known that myself i only had two channels breaking up but it was only a faulty connector it was a puzzle

Crossover cable??

Sounds like your entering the right info in the right places, and if your ip address for pc and box is one below as mentioned above the only thing i could think of why you are having problems is the cable.

Make sure you are using a Ethernet CROSSOVER cable and not just a normal Ethernet cable.
