Moteck VII box

[aloha6952]

I have a 10 foot Weingardt dish and would like to hook up box to move dish the cable coming from arm has four wires red, black which i assume is power and they make motor run east to west. The other two wires are brown and blue I assume these hook to sensor does it matter which one goes to the top or bottom connectors on box? I am assuming that if it moves east when pushing west button you just switch the red and black wires. I need a little help in getting started

I am using a QPF-031 Invacom Lnb since it is a prime focus dish and aimed at satelite 110 at the moment and getting a 100% signal, but would like to get to a FTA channels.


Thanks in advance

You aren't going to get good FTA channels on 110 sat. You should get a couple of circular channels from DISHnet that are free on 110. You need to look on Lyngsat.net to find the channels you want to view and move the dish to that.

you have a Ku LNB that should pick up linear and circular signals depending on the setting you have in your receiver. You could get a C-band LNB and pick up some C-band... but there are no C band channels on 110. Also, some big dishes are not good for picking up Ku band signals... you need to confirm that your dish is Ku ready.

I realize that ia am on wrong sat that just happens to be where it was from before i was recieving c-band and ku bands i just changed lnb to a QPF-031 Invacom but I need to know how to hook up the four wires to the Moteck VII box the wires are Red, Black, Blue and Brown.

Thanks for the info it is helpful.

the 2 large wires which should be the red and black go to the motor ports on the v box and the 2 small wires blue and brown are sensor wires. if it moves in the wrong direction switch the motor wires.
