Have you entered in your Log & Lat into the box settings?

are you using usals? is dish set up correctly? also if ya go to were a sat should be just check onto the transponder page and scroll down a few see if it changes, i had to do this with mine as first few transponders that were on there didnt pick ~~~~all up, i scrolled down a few and the signal shot up to 85%, had same problem with a few sats..

long and lat are set and my motor is motor dish diseqc 1.2. and i've gone through a few but not them all going to attempt it tonight

probs better off just doin a blind scan, i read somewhere that some of the preset transponders pick nowt up as stuff gets shifted about

Set your motor USALS

tp

When set to diseqc1.2 once the dish is in place you have to change transponders,then the signal quality will pop in.I usually move the dish with another receiver then save settings using the s10.It isn't the best for setting up a motorized system.Usals isn't an option,since my motor sensors are shot.I am limited to diseqc1.2 moving only.

Hopefully yes, i have mine set to usals, but when i get to a satellite and there is no signal i scroll through the transponders and it signal jumps up; so just give it a try.. i have my dish temp set up to my shed until i'm fit enough to go up ladders again so i though my dish may be slightly off line, but reading about i learn some transponders stopped working or moved, You might aswell try it for nowt anyways . I put the dish to 0 and set it up from there, manually found 28.2 with sat meter then just set usals

skybox

So far the skybox firmware seems to be the best for motor setting up,I used the 2011-9-14 firmware the other night to setup my motor for all sats diseqc1.2.Starting at a known reference point for the initial sat,If I had to move the dish 2 degrees I would goose it for 2 seconds then go to the tp menu.For some reason you have to get off the move <e w> menu before the quality reading will pop in.Once you have all the sats set, save the sat/channel list and load your favorite firmware.Then reload the sat list you saved previously.
