Motorized C and Ku dishes with Enigma2
I have two motorized dishes connected to a 4x8 multi-switch. The dishes are equipped with ortho feeds and LNBs. I have two VBoxes controlling the dish motors.
Which receiver are you using? Using telnet or terminal (putty), post the output of this command: grep 'config.Nims' /etc/enigma2/settings
Using the Octagon SF8008 Supreme. I know what you are referring to but I'm totally inexperienced with that. However I can get the help of someone very experienced. I will report back.
I had a look at those settings using putty. massive file. LNB and DiSEqC settings for LNB1(C-Band) and LNB2(Ku) for about 80+ sat positions. I don't use the same position numbers for C and Ku. I use even numbers for Ku and odd numbers for C-Band. This prevents the receiver from thinking it's already at the location the other dish is at and not sending the call. I don't use 1~4 because of the firmware in a VBox and I have a DiSEqC1.0 switch to select the proper VBox. I don't use the two tuner method because I have another pair of motorized dishes on tuner B, but not setup for DiSEqC 1.2 like tuner A. Just for special circumstances. So yeah it would be handy if the receiver could keep track of two DiSEqC 1.2 dishes on the same tuner.
Post the output of: grep 'config.Nims' /etc/enigma2/settings. Are you able to do this?
I don't know how but I will figure it out.
root@sf8008:~# grep 'config.Nims' /etc/enigma2/settings
