    ### guide for setting up non usals for dm800 ###

    STAGE 1.
    Setting up a DM800 none usals
    GOTO Main Menu \ Setup \ Service Searching \ Tuning
    Press "OK" on "TUNER A"



    Use L/R keys to change Configuration Mode to "advanced"
    Move down to "SATELLITE"
    Use L/R keys to select the satellite you want to add



    Go down to "LNB"
    Use L/R keys to select "LNB 1"
    Next ensure "Diseqc Mode" is " 1.2"
    (I left the others at the default setting's)
    Scroll further down to "LOF" and set it to "Universal LNB" using the L/R keys



    Underneath that set "Use USALS" for this satellite to "no" using L/R keys
    Go down to "Stored position"
    Set the position you want to for this satellite to appear at using L/R keys ie 001, 002 etc and press ok
    Then Press "OK" to save the info you have inputted.
    You will need to perform this for each Satellite position you intend to set up. Before you got to positioner setup.

    STAGE 2.
    GOTO back to Main Menu \ Setup \ Service Searching \ Positioner Satfinder
    Go down to "Satfinder"



    Press ok on Satfinder next picture



    Using L/R keys select "Predefined or Manual transponder" as required
    Go down to "Satellite" and use the L/R keys to select the Satellite to place at the above Storage postion
    Press "OK"
    When you have a lock exit this screen

    GOTO back to Main Menu \ Setup \ Service Searching \ Positioner setup



    Press ok on positioner setup next picture
    Go up to "Tune"
    Press the "Red Button"
    Select the satellite that you had a lock on, change the transponder so it was the same as in the satfinder picture

    Go down to "Positioner storage"





    Go down to "Positioner storage"
    Use L/R keys to set the postion number that is to be setup
    Press the GREEN button to store that location
    After you have stored this position got back to satfind and change the satellite to the next one you want to view, when you have a lock on this satellite exit again and proceed with the satellite positioner again .
    You will need to perform this for each position you intend to set up in line with what you did in stage 1
    P.S. i had already put settings in so i did not have to scan any sats in.
    I hope this can help a few others out

        Good guide and the pdf doc with screenshots really helps.

        A quick question regarding the "Reception Settings" screen. Do you have to input your longitude and latitude co-ordinates at the bottom there?

        Those figures on screen in the guide, are they default figures? Do we change them?

        Cheers,

        PS Gotta love the comment/question above!!!

              Hi

              Newbie here.

              Will these instructions allow me to setup the 800hd to receive say eurobird, hotbird and astra.

              As only kept 28.8 when I moved from 500DM (which was set up for the 3 sats) to 800HD could not figure out how to set up on the 800 for the 3 sats at the same time.

              Any help would be great even point to previous threads if this has been posted before

              Thanks in advance

                Hi,
                I'm new here, I read a lot but I'm not sure if I found what I need.

                I have to move antenna to next sat from dm 800 menu, not from positioner.
                I have to tell you that I have prime focus, with actuator, not HH.

                  Frontwave Dish

                  Sorry Guys will this sticky allow me to set up the Frontwave to view/access 28.8, 19.2 and 13 which I have positioned on the Dish.



                  Had it working fine for the DM500 but cannot seem to get it for the Dm800. Well I can only seem to access the 28.8 channels but cannot figure out how to view the other channels on 19.9 and 13. Was hoping too see if there was a walk through or instructions that could help or point me int he right direction please. Thanks

                          I got my dreambox 800 HD a week ago and could not figure this out. I found this post today and everything is working perfectly now. Big thanks for this post.

                              can anyone tell me what to do to set up to use for 4 satellites, no motor, a basic disqu switch.
                              I know the ports on the disqu switch and the satelittes that are feeding each port.
                              Already flashed and patched.
                              Thank you
