Hi everyone
I have a 90cm Master of focus dish but nothing to make it move since my Echostar 8700 stopped working.
What do i need to get it going again

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 -

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.
