Humax IR-ACE-SII
P4, 3GHz

Hello All,
Hope someone can explain the following to me. 2
I recently received a Humax IR-ACE-SII receiver along with a 105cm oval dish and Ku band LNB. This setup was used in Bahrain to view Pay channels, namley e-Pehla and e-Firstnet. The Transponder used was NileSat. The irdetto access card was in the slot. All these equipment were supplied by the service provider in Bahrain and also installed by them.
I live in Sri Lanka. Almost near colombo. So I set up the dish and LNB, and plugged it to the Humax and tried to lock on to Intelsat 12 (PAS 12).. no luck
Then on to NSS 6...again no luck. What I did was in the Installation menu, under Antenna Setting, I filled 2 user defined satellites.. I moved the dish all around.. but 0% signal strength and 0% quality. I used the calculator at www.satsig.net to get the proper azimuth and elevation angles for both transponders.
Then i selected a preset Satellite transponder... there were several.. for e.g TURKSAT... and the signal strength burst to 89%.. Quality 0%.
This was the same for most of the other preset tranponders, with few exceptions.
I also tried with several different settings Such as choosing different LNB frequencies, LNB Power on/off.. but nothing.
I even tried Choosing Nilesat and then adjusting the dish for PAS 12. The signal strength went upto 91% but quality remained at 0%.
I later noticed that the receiver too was branded with the provider's logo.
I even bought a new LNB, thinking the old one was faulty.
Same results from the new one.
Pls can someone explain this situation. Any help appreciated!
Is it possible that the soft on the Humax is programmed in some way not to work without OTA updates? or some similar method?
Again any help to shed light on this situ is appreciated.
