My System: Dream 7000 2xEurovox red Humax HD |
To access the hidden menu for diseqc settings and usals Press Menu Setup Freesat tune then press Red Button Green Button Yellow Button Blue Button Green Button Yellow Button Blue Button Then the Antenna settings option should appear. and then you can access the Antenna Settings part of the menu. to set up your diseqc. I have used this some time ago and its great for Multi sat reception. | ||

My System: Humax HD | Hi May I ask you a question. If I change the diseqc would I be able to add a channel such as Horse & Country tv to the FREESAT channels? SOrry if this is an obvious one. Stewpot47 | ||

| Horse and Country will appear on the list within the Astra 2 lineup on a motorised setting, it will not appear in the Freesat listing, or within the Freesat EPG. | ||

My System: Humax HD | Hi Channel hopper Thanks for that. I am not sure I fully understand! When I got my Humax I did a scan on Freesat got the full Freesat listings EPG. I then did a none Freesat scan and got a different listing and was unable to see Freesat items. So I went back to the Freesat EPG which I use now. My problem is my wife is a horsey perosn and likes H&C tv & would like the french Equidia as well I am a big fan of HD and would prefer to have it all on one reciever. Any hints welcome.

This defaults to 28E, so you don't have to worry about the Secret Menu and DiSEqC/Motor settings. Then just Scan all, or select the Horse & Country Transponder only. 11623 H 27500 2/3 Done. Retrieve Channel by selecting non-Freesat Mode. PS: Not familiar with the French Equida Channel: What Satellite is it on? Is it Free to Air? Edit: As you've apparently already done a Manual scan, your non-Freesat mode Channel list may already have H&C listed ................. That said, when I scanned mine, the TP lists were (as per usual with DSAT Receivers) not complete/out of date/incorrect, so if it isn't there , you'll have to add it (Go to the TP line and scroll to User Defined). | |||

My System: TM6800HD, TM1000, TM600 Linux,TM5200, TM2200 motor, Triax TD110 dish + Fortec 85cm. Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | Just got a Humax HDR to play with for a few hours, just to confirm that the secret code for the hidden menu does work on that too. However one disapointment is that when motorised antenna is selected, the unit becomes single tuner only capable. There doesn't seem to be a way round it. | ||

Which channels are you missing?? | ||

Second - unless you have a satellite dish with a motor to move it around OR more than one LNB or satellite dish then these settings are COMPLETELY useless to you. Try these links for basic information _http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DiSEqC _http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Satellites_Automatic_Location_System | ||
