Seting up Skybox m3!?

[Didde3000]

Hi mates! I just bought a Skybox m3 for "the kids TV".

Anyway, I have some trouble installing it.
I am connected to two satelites Thor 0.8w and Sirius 4.8e.

But I get no signal or low signal when I try to add these two and look for channels.

How do I set up two satelites? What should I put in port? How do I choose different LNBs?

Well my question is: How do I get it to work with two satelites?

Is it better to find the channels with s single search?

I have managed to install the cline. And I have also managed to get picture on a channel one time. But now it always says that there are no signal.

Thanks for your help friends!

for signal reception from two satellites on one satellite plate to you it is necessary DiSEqC the switch and respectively in settings of a receiver to establish the necessary ports DiSEqC

Re: Seting up Skybox m3!?

If you have a static dish you must focus your LNB's on the satellite, it
seems you are between satellites therefore very low or no signal at all.
See a thread in this forum by engineerkhan15 about aligning your dish.

make sure you have a DISeQc installed on both sats.
For emxample
sat 1 is port 1
sat 2 is port 2
Now you know which satellite is on wich port. Go to the satellite menu and select the appropriate satellite and put the port in the receiver as they are on the DiSeqC switch.
On the receiver
Port 1-- Sat1
Port 2-- Sat2
It should work this way.

Instead of doing a single seach, Do a Blind search on both sats. It should find all the channels.
