Angry Captive Works 600S premium, no signal!

Help... wonder if there are any CW users here... anyways...

I just got this box.. hooked it up using my LNB line that works with my Classic NA.

Went into Antenna set-up and got no Signal or Quality bars for any TPs for several different sats.

I did the AUTO scan and the signal bars didnt change.

Then I did a BLIND SCAN and it periodically got a good , like 80% green strength, but 47% red quality bar... thru out the scan... it would get signal, then not, etc... after it was done, it picked up no channels.

Does the quality bar need to have green bars (balls actually) or is it always red....

Is there some other setting that I am missing with this receiver?? It's almost like it's not outputting any voltage (13/18v) to the LNB connector... and I could NOT find this screen menu setting to output voltage in this receiver, unlike in the Classic NA menu, there is a setting to put out 13 or 18v or no volts?

If this is the case, can I look the LNB into my Classic and use the Loop Out connector of the Classic to go into my CW600 LNB input ? Is that what this Loop Out is for??

So frustrating... can the CW be bad??? it's new fresh out of the box with nice sealed wrappings, etc....
