Hi everyone

You'll need a separate v-box unit controlled by your Technomate's DiseqC control if presumably you still have a 36V motor (actuator?) on your dish.

This one has an extra terminal for the +5V if that is what the Fibo needs -

My System: 1.2M & 55cm Gregorian Dish`s, 1.5m Gibertini on a Jaeger 1224 H-H motor. Dreambox 7025 200gb HD, Vbox-II. SS2 Card.

As long as the vbox has +5v output it will work with the fibo motor.

I you have a box with 4 wires its verry simple to make it 5 wires.

It's only a small modification and can do by every one that can drill a smal hole and solder 1 connection.
