    are you using a motorised setup ?

    If your using DiSEqC 1.2 you will have to set-up the dish positions manually. If your usuing USALS it should be automatic.

    Here's the USALS procedure from memory (someone please jump in and correct me if I've made any mistakes)

    First make sure the dish is correctly aligned on a satellite, eg THOR 1W

    Press Menu -> Set Up -> Service Searching -> Tuner Configuration

    Choose Tuner
    ALPS BSBE2 (DVB-S2) - Press OK

    Configuration Mode: Advanced

    Satellite : THOR 1W

    Voltage Mode: Polarization

    Tone Mode: band

    LNB : LNB 1

    DiSEqC Mode: 1.2

    Use USALS for this Sat: Yes

    Longitude: Set this to the correct Longitude for your area.
    To find the correct longitude settings for your area go to the following website
    Worldwide map search, route finder and travel directions - powered by Multimap

    In the "Find a Map" box at the top left of the page, enter your post code.
    Select your country in the drop down box below it and click on the "Find" button.

    This will display a map on the screen and below the map at the bottom right you
    will see your Latitude information, example below for Post Code NW1 UK :-

    Lat: 51:31:59N (51.53319)
    Lon: 0:08:40W (-0.1445)
    you may have to miss last digit
    So in this example in the Dreambox menu you'd set

    Longitude: 0.1445
    West
    latitude: 51.53319
    north

      I don't want to highjack this thread, but could we go further into this proceedure?
      Two days ago had delivery of a DM 800 Clone and have got as far as installing Enigma 2 Flash.
      I'm extremely unaware of the process to achieve a fully functional DM box, but I believe I have to now instal an EMU?
      Following on from the above how do I do this and what do I need regards cables, etc.
      Also, what is the setup re: TV, DM 800 and PC in a schematic sense to download an EMU?
      Mods feel free to move/amend if you feel this dosen't follow on from the original request.

      Best wishes from,

      Gibson.

                              Picked up the set up tuitorial, very usfull jumpinjo.
                              Not sure how to instal EMU via buttons though. Screens look unfamiliar and not sure what to put where. Any help appreciated.
