    follow this mate iv taken it from a tutorial with pictures but iv omitted the pictures. i am not the author of the tutorial

    guide to setting up your DM800 tuner
    Image Used - Blackhole V0.12
    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 that I used on mine
    First make sure the dish is correctly aligned on a satellite, eg Astra 28.2e
    Press Menu
    Set Up
    Service Searching
    Tuner Configuration
    Choose Tuner ALPS BSBE2 (DVB-S2) - Press OK
    Now for my configuration??..
    Configuration Mode: Advanced
    Satellite : Astra 2A/2B/2D/Eurobird 1 (28.2e)
    Change LNB to LNB 1
    Priority : Auto
    LOF: Universal LNB
    Voltage Mode: Polarization
    Increased voltage: yes
    Tone Mode: band
    DiSEqC Mode: 1.2
    Toneburst: None
    Committed DiSEqC: None
    Fast DiSEqC : no
    Sequence repeat : no
    Command order : committed toneburst
    Uncomitted DiSEqC command : None
    DiSEqC repeats : none
    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 Postcode district:NE39 1
    Lat:54:55:09N (54.91913)
    Lon:1:44:55W (-1.74859)
    So in this example in the Dreambox menu you'd set
    Longitude: 001.748
    West
    Latitude : 54:550
    North
    Use USALS for this Sat: Yes
    PRESS OK TO SAVE
    Once this is set up on one satellite its easy to sort the rest.
    Go back into reception settings
    Highlight satellite and choose the satellite you want
    The example here shows Hellas on 39.0e
    Now select LNB and change to LNB 1
    This will fill in the configuration with your previously set configuration
    PRESS OK TO SAVE
    Repeat for the other sats you are looking to pick up

    I think you'll find it was pre-setup. If you run a factory reset, you'll be able to select any satellite you want. Hope this helps!
