    Default scanning

    Has anyone found a way to scan one sat at a time? If not, I would add that to my wish list.

    Nostradamus, sorry. When I hook up an other stb everything works as it should. It is only this mini. It seems to read 110 as 119, even though the order and settings are correct. I got it to scan correctly exactly one time as a single sat, but when you add sats it then screws up and adds double channels. It is not right. What is throwing me off is any other stb connected to the line with the same settings works fine, scans fine, etc.

    May be a bug that needs correction

    Thanks ftaforme, I agree. I have definitely been around for a while and this thing has me stumped. I cannot get it to reliably scan 119, no matter what I do. I have scanned and defaulted many many times and it has scanned 110 almost every time. Twice it scanned 119, with the same settings, the same everything, and I am copying exactly everything every time. The settings work perfectly for three other stb's on 119, just not on the mini, so hopefully the right people are reading the wish list and see it is an issue.

    are you getting a lock on satellite before scanning?

    the way my buddy did it was like this ...

    factory default
    antenna setings
    set up sat 110 put it on transponder 12224 to get a lock .. save setting
    set up sat 119 put it on transponder 12297 to get a lock .. save setting
    set up sat 129 put it on transponder 12676 to get a lock .. save setting
    exit
    from main menu select
    channel scan / tuner=all, network=disable
    press blue button and wait

    On tp 12297 it locks on 110, or at least it says it's 110. When I get it to lock onto 119 it actually is scanning 110. You know I've been around this hobby for a while, but really, this has got me very confused...it has to be sw since the other stb's all work perfectly on the same line, same settings, etc. This box does nee the ability to scan single sats, one at a time, though. It doesn't seem to do that.....

    near as I know you can scan individual sats from the antenna setup by pressing blue button

    Factory defaulted, loaded new file, hard reboot, same thing, cannot scan 119. Remember, the Jynxbox, SonicviewHD and Linkbox all are scanning it fine. I guess I'll have to wait for them to work on DPP44 combinations in the software....

    They have to work on DPP44 switch. When configured as dishpro and diseq parameter as A,B,C,D there is signal sometimes and no signal another time. Also noted when you change channels no signal and wait for sometime may signal kicks in. I think dishpro and DPP44 needs fine tuning in the software. When tested with standard lnbs and regular diseq switches no issues. If these minor issues are corrected Pinwheel mini is a great receiver.
