May I first start by saying what a great site this is. My system comprises of a DM800hd connected to a 1m motorised dish using a Gemini image (not sure which version)this is working fine. I also have a TM9100 connected to a S*Y mini dish and the motorised dish (not moving it)via a diseqc switch and this is also working fine switching between dishes with no problems. My Problem is that when I try to connect the DM800hd to the mini dish via another diseqc switch I cannot get the motor to move. I have tried various swithches but still no success. I believe that the receiver cable goes directly to the motor and that the out put of motor to the input of switch and the two lnb's to the two output ports of switch. Hope someone can offer some advice. Many thanks in advance.

Try with the receiver to the switch, and then to the motor. That worked fine on my TM600.
