[QUOTE="rasp54, post: 502431, member: 236987"] I have changed from A echostar 3000viaip 36vdc.TO DARKBOX 2008 and VBOX But i have a problem no signal from vbox to darkbox. If i put the echostar 3000viap back on and use as postioner signal and quality 93%. I was thinking it was the connectors F type but the same leads work fine on the echostar even made new ends on f type and on motor wires. I know it's at the right postion at hotbird because the signal from the echostar to darkbox is brillaint. Using the same leads and sat position no signal from vbox to darkbox. In the vbox manual is says that the power to the postioner will turn off automatically when the receiver is switched off but the vbox stays on. I have just switched back to echostar and the signal on the darkbox is brill. The motor is backlash auto adjustment 36v dc with reed switch sensor and adjustable E/W limits. Echostar postioner output power 36VDC,5 AMP MAX. W= V X 1 = 180WATTS MAX. ALSAT VBOX 500 36VDC.3 AMPS. W= V X I = 118WATTS on box 94 WATTS. The only thing i can think of is the vbox 500 is not powerful enough. Any advice please guys. Have not been around for bit sorry [/QUOTE]
