Hello All,

I have a Technomate 9100 reciever, TM-Super Box III Vbox and an Actuator which I am trying setup. I can move the actuator using the Vbox remote control but can not get the reviever to move the actuator. Can someone please help me out of my misery?

Thanks to you all

Assuming you've connected up the Vbox correctly, you need to select DiSEqC 1.2 positioner control on the receiver and the dish should move with a Go East/West command. Pan the dish and save satellite positions either using the default POS DiSEqC numbering generated by the receiver or by your own position numbering.

Thanks for your help. Please can tell me what the correct connection should be for the Vbox? Also do you know the menu on the Techomate reciever that I can use to select the DiSEqC 1.2 positioner on the receiver.

Thanks

Receiver to Vbox > Vbox to LNb as per the manual.

Can't remember the menus on the 9100, only set up a couple early last year. I'm sure others will see this thread and be able to help with that info, but in the meantime, it'll be under something like motor control / many satellites via rotor, DiSEqC 1.2 postioner.

Its image dependent, but it should be the same as the Dreambox :D

On EDG Nemesis (Best image i think for a TM9100) Menu -> 6 -> 4 -> 3

The shots below will show you through it.

It starts at Menu 4 :D
