I would start from scratch , and drive your motor manually to zero 0 and use a pin to reset motor , shut off box from rear , unplug coax from your motor , wait 30 sec than reconnect . it erases memory stored on the unit and do a refresh on your box with FD , thats if you have the time to do this . Sometimes the Dreamlink and motor gets confused .and this is what i do with my 2 DL and 2 sg2100 motors . The HH90 may have slightly different location for reset button but look closely at the unit ( motor ) . goodluck

Has this setup worked previously or is this a new installation? any switches? Do you have an option to select one sat or provider on your receiver - if you do select 110 only (or dn) and see what happens.

Did you connect the new LNB and switch AFTER the motor?

What is your Due South satellite set to in your motor settings???

If it's 82W then thats the problem, it's going back to #1 or the reference satellite.

Did you mean a new LNB installation used on an old motor setup, or an old motor used in a new installation??

If the latter then the motor needs to be reset and the due south bird found first.

The switch has to be connected after the motor.

The switch has to be connected after the motor.

lnb 1---> switch 1
----> switch receiver--------->motor lnb------>motor receiver------->receiver
lnb 2---->switch 2

please let me know if this configuration is wrong.

thanks

Don't understand your flow chart ( the high heat here might be afffecting me. lol) fully. Bottom line is that you can't have anything between the receiver-motor.

[dani90]

that's right i dont have anything between motor and receiver.

That's not what you indicated in post # 6.

I would recommend , as suggested by others, starting of with a motor reset.

Yup motor reset is needed.....The motor is getting confused with the new commands from the new reciver.......And it must go directly to the motor from the receiver, then the switch to the LNB.


Receiver >>>>>>> Motor >>>>>>> Switch >>>>>> LNB's.
