Hi all,


I upgraded firmware on my manhattan Plaza ST350.

I had to reload & scan all birds again.

Now all the c-band sats from apstar to pas 2 will not work unless I manually st 14 or 18v in antenna settings as oposed to V/H.

All other sats are fine.

Seems weird, & I have tried to rescan to no avail.

Another thing, if I plug speccy back in, they work...(speccy was hooked up via LNB loop out)

Any help appriciated.

cheers

Looks like a total blind scan has fixed it...but still weird why on a few birds stopped
working.


cheers

Sometimes when you do a software reboot, not only do you loose your channel // frequancy settings , but your LNB fequances are also wiped,

The reason for your specc'y working, that would only use the loop-through link and would supply it's own 14 // 18 volts. for what ever you loaded into the specc'y

All the more reason to regularily upload channel lists!!!

Thanks guys,


weird, after I did software upgrade I lost all channels & info so I went & reloaded 1 by 1 & rescaned all birds. (deleted all birds not needed)

Everything was fine then 4 sats lost signal, yet all channel info was there.

Another thing too, when I turn power off at STB, it reboots now in radio mode.


cheers
