Skybox F5 Motor Setting & Channel List

[Tigger13]

Just set up box last night. 2 questions please:
Motor Setting - trying to enter long and lat but after you disable limits you cant seem to save without going to 'goto' and exiting. After that long and settings revert to 0.0 again? How do you save those settings? Having said that I was able to trial getting to 13 (although channel search failed) and back to 28 which seemed to work?
Channel List - does the AJ - or any other list - include the channels on the satellites at 19, 13 for example.
Many thanks

Aj's list has all the sat's in the channel list...you just need to scan them....

do you have a motorized setup ???...I.e a dish that move's or a $ly fixed dish
you don't disable limits.you put Long & LAT in ...then enable Usals on the sat's you want....

Many thanks - yes motorised set up.
On the last sytem I had you simply entered and saved your long and lat and then you could easily move around the various satellites.
I assume this is similar.
I enabled usals on all sats.
When you enter long and lat numbers I cant see where there is option to save them (it takes you to limit settings and go to) If you exit at that point the long and lat revert back to 0.0.??

If the F5 is the same as the F3 setup...which i think it is

Goto Installation Antenna
set you Long & Lat...then exit back....no need to save them or goto limit setup

Yes - I wondered if it might atually be saving the detail without showing it (and when you go back in it just shows 0.0 again) as dish did find its way back to 28.
To scan each satellite is it best on blind scan?
Thanks again.

Yes mate a blind scan...not sure about the f5
but the F3 can only hold 4-5 sat's i would guess the f5's the same

When you go back into antenna setup the long & lat should be there i.e 54.5N....2.8E

Yes - cheers - its there now but could swear didn't do anything different to what I was doing before. All loaded on 19 and 13 but nothing clearing?? 28 wasn't either but just read one of your other posts ref DCHP setting and back in business - thanks

Cheers mate no thx needed where all here to help each other..

as for clearing the channels on the sat's your on about.....not sure mate....you need to load soft*** keys on your box but i have never done it on the F5
also not sure if its against the rules to ask in this part of the forum...here's the key's tho thx to digicon http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...8/#post2106021

i know you can add the keys via the remote....but this you would have to google
