Question Problem with adding satellites and strange scan results

I just had my system professionally (?) installed. I'm using it only for FTA Ku channels.

The main satellite that I want (AMC-4 for the BVN channel) works fine, but attempts to add other satellites through the "Add Satellite" screen fail because the data is not stored. I don't know why, neither did the guy who installed it.

When I run scans (auto scan, power scan) to add various satellites and channels, the same channels seem to be added over and over. That does not seem right either.

Now here's something I don't like at all: I don't really see the antenna moving when I jump from one satellite to another (the system is DiSeqC 1.2-enabled), even though the screen says "moving to satellite position." The only way I seem to be able to adjust the antenna position is through "Move" and "Step Move."

Something fishy is going on. Any help would be much appreciated.

FTA Motorized Satellite System (purchased from Sadoun):
  • Fortec Star Mercury II
  • Fortec Star FS80P 31" Dish
  • Digipower SG2100 motor
  • Universal Linear Ku 0.4 dB LNBF
