[bobi]

m8 can you be more spiecific what is really your problem ..

i can try help you ..is caning channels?/ is motorised...

looks like you have a porblem inmotorised...Are you using Motor = mean Diseqc or USUALS !?

 

[martin.uk]

ive tried both Diseqc or USUALS !? think i have long lat put in wrong
and how do i sort my fav outs is there any chan lists about like dreambox has

 

[Rumpelstiltskin.]

use multimap.com for long/lat settings.
There will be 2 lots of north and west settings.
Use the settings in the brackets next to the first lot i.e.
Lat: 50:33:05N (50.13)
Lon: 1:51:16W (-1.83772)

You enter
50.1 N
1.8 W


As for channel lsits, I never like them as they are done on others sat/motor settings.
It's easy to set up favs etc with remote.
There should be a new channel editor soon.

This is how to set up a Spiderbox the easiest way possible.
===============================
USALS motor setup.
___________________________________
Connect all cables.
LNB cable to LNB in
HDMI or Scart connected between the TV and the spiderbox
Network cable connected. One end to the spiderbox and the other to a suitable router.

press the power switch in your remote control to turn it on.

Press the menu button.

Select the Installation section by scrolling right/left

Go to motor setup, press OK

Enter pin code "0000"

Press the green button to allow you to enter your longitude and latitude.

Longituse is switched between E & W by pressing the < and > buttons.

Enter your longitude by using the number keys. Note: if your Longitude is 1.5W (for example) you must enter 001.5W in this field.

Enter your latitude, e,g, 55.6N. You can change N to S with the arrow keys too, but most of you won't want to do that.

Apply a patch:

Get a USB stick.

Download a patch from here https://www.digitalworldz.co.uk/index.php?threads/234640/ if you have not requested, or do not want the gift channels
For a patch with the gift channels, download one from here:
https://www.digitalworldz.co.uk/index.php?threads/234640/

EXTRACT the file (*.uad) from the rar file and copy it to your USB stick.
You must extract the file using winzip or winrar or a similar program as the rar file on a USB stick will not be of any use to you.

Insert the USB stick into one of the USB ports in your spiderbox.

Go to the Accessory Section of the menu and select USB.

Scroll to the .uad file you have copied there and press OK

In the popup window, select S/W Update

Wait for your box to load the patch.. DO NOT POWER OFF

The box will reboot by itself with the new patch installed.
