    Question regarding manual satellite scan

    Hi there,

    I have a DM7025 and I'd like to update the feeds on one sat.
    When you do a manual satellite scan, you have the possibility to decide what is to do with existing services (Clear before scan):
    This is the clarification I found:

    Clear before scan:
    a) ?yes" means remove all services and transponders for this sat position / all selected sat positions
    b) "no? means hold all services and transponders for this sat position / all selected sat positions this resets all old new found flags (incremental scan)
    c) "yes (keep feeds) means the same as a) but hold all feed services/transponders
    I would need just a quick explanation about these 3 options, like when to use a), b) or c)

    In my case just now, I want to find the new transponders and remove the old ones. Should I choose option a) or c)?

    How I understand it is:
    a) Everything is deleted, and all will be seen as new after the scan
    b) Everything is kept, so after the scan I will probably have many channels in double ??
    c) --- I don?t really understand this one. Please explain!



    An other question about scanning, when you do a scan on a single transponder. There is an option ?Network scan: yes/no?.
    What is it? From what I remember, with Yes, the scan will find more channels, but I don?t know why/how.


    Thanks in advance!

    Not sure about the first part of your post as I don't have a 7025, that's the first I've heard of that option.

    Regarding the network search option, if this is ticked, it will look at the NIT table for transponders with other channels in and scan them too. Usually you need to scan the default frequency on that symbol rate to be able to access the NIT table...but I'm not an expert at that shit so not 100% sure.

        That's correct, I found the same answer. Thanks!

        Yep, I know. The "Clear before scan" option is available when you do a single sat scan.
        I tested with option c) and it remove some "non-working/not-found" channels and added the new ones. So I think it's the option to go with for an update.

        Rgds.

            goto menu>setup>service searching>tuner configeration>chose tuner select tuner a >scroll right on cofigeration mode to advanced
            then under neath that it says satellite if you can scroll left or right you will see each sat
            mine is
            configeration>advanced
            satellite>28.2
            voltagemode>polorization
            tonemode>band
            use usals for sat>yes
            lnb>lnb1
            diseqc mode>1.2
            toneburst>none
            fast diseqc>no
            sequence repeat>no
            comand order>commited tone burst
            uncomited dieqc comand>none
            diseqc repeats>none
            longitude>
            lattitude>
            usals>yes

            then scroll right to next sat say 19.2
            then scroll down to lnb then scroll right and it will activate every thing automatically from your first sat your long ,lat and every thing else
            then press ok to activate all sat and it will exit automatically
            hope this helps

                  Multiboot recommendation *Help*

                  I have a DM 7020s and wanting to back up my current working image then set up multi booting of two or mor images.

                  I have a 300GIG HDD install with nothing on it yet.

                  What is the recommended software to use that work with 7020?

                  Thanks,
