westenlive Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 hello everyone and congratulations with the program. I have a problem that I can not solve. I have a DVBSKy S952 Dual DVB-S / S2 PCIe and I have uploaded a channel list I set the Angular Pos position with Tool TransEdit. but the parabolic motor does not move when you select channels from the list in DVBViewer. To move the dish motor I have to go to Tool TransEdit and in the positioner tab I have to double click on Angular Pos. how can I solve this problem? Quote Link to comment
Griga Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 In the DVBViewer Channel Editor the Reception Settings (-> click gear wheel icon) should look like this: Additionally the "Site" data must be configured correctly. Please check it. Quote Link to comment
westenlive Posted September 1, 2018 Author Share Posted September 1, 2018 could you explain the procedure? where do you get the channel list? thank you Quote Link to comment
Griga Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 it is one of the standard channel lists shipped with DVBViewer (available for Astra 19/23/28° E and Hotbird 13° E). Go to Reception Settings -> select DVB-S in the list of available reception types -> select the transponder list -> set up DiSEqC -> click Save -> click Load Channel List -> select the list in the popup menu. If there is no standard channel list / transponder list for your satellite position: Read here and scan. Quote Link to comment
westenlive Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 hello thanks for the help I did everything you told me but it still does not work. when I go on the TV channel the rotor receives 19.5v but does not move. to make it work I have to click twice on this button GO TO ANGULAR POS. I am desperate. maybe I give up Quote Link to comment

Looks like the motor does not receive the first command, so a repetition is needed. There are two things you can try: (1) Open the file hardware.xml from the DVBViewer configuration folder with a text editor (Notepad) while DVBViewer is closed. For each DVB-S device there is a line <entry name="DiSEqCCount">1</entry> Replace 1 by 2 or even 3. It will let DVBViewer output the DiSEqC command two or three times. In TransEdit it works similarly. The setting can be changed in the file TransEdit.ini, [Hardware] section. (2) Use the DiSEqC = Extended setting. It provides a DiSEqC editor where you can enter a sequence of DiSEqC commands. Read more about it here. In your case I would try the following sequence Positioner - Angular Position Internal - Delay - 500 Positioner - Angular Position so that the DiSEqC command is sent twice with 500 milliseconds delay in between. 1 Quote Link to comment

I solved with the first solution you gave me now it seems to work well. thank you so much Quote Link to comment
