Hi All,

For your information
No Satellite signal is being received please unplug your box from the mains then plug back in and wait 5 minutes before trying agina etc etc.

I am trying to get my DRX280 working I have tested the signal with an signal meter and also connected my dutch box from down stairs all free to air channels work no proble so the dish and cables should be ok.

LNB:http://www.canaldigitaal.nl/uploadedfiles/content/others/klantenservice/handleiding-triple-lnb.pdf
DISH 84CM TRIAX

I have tried to reset the box in software and leaving it off for 30 mins.
tried services 4 -> 0-> 1-> select and tried all kind of frequencies

is there something that my DRX280 does not support my triple lnb I can't figure it out hopefully some one here can help me out.

Many thanks,

Jortijn

Welcome to the forum.
I am not aware that any Skyuk stb will support a triple lnb, who has suggested this setup? Let alone allow the reception of Canaldigital BTW your link is broken

What you are saying is that the sky+ DRX280 will not support tripple lnb?
Maybe I forgot to say but I only want to watch the free view channels on this box (Astra 28.2 degrees) wich is included on my triple lnb. Please copy paste the link and it will work

The only way I can see this working is if the LNB defaults to outputting 28E as the Sky box has no way of controlling the LNB.

maybe a strange question are there boxes that can select the 28E on my lnb and only pass this trough to my skybox?

It isn't a matter of selecting the LNB.. The receiver needs to send the disecq signal which is understood by the LNB and switches accordingly. S-y boxes aren't capable of generating the Disecq signal. To make absolutely certain, maybe you could contact a dealer who sells this type of LNB, as a prospective customer, and ask innocently; 'Will this work wth a S_y box?'

It wont work on a multi lnb system. Sky UK boxes dont support disecq switching.
