Need help with satellite setup for Echo 7

[go120]

I have two twin LBN's that go to a Diseqc 2X1 that goes to a Viewsat 2000 Platinum. I can get the Echo 8,10 satellite but I can not get the Echo7 satellite to come in.

The two LBN are two port with the cable being in the left side of the LBN looking straight into the ports for the 119 and 110 satellite LBNs. The 119 is on the left side of the dual head looking from the dish.

I am not sure what the Diseqc is.

The satellite setup screen for my viewsat has the following categories:"

Category Options

Satellite All satellites
LBN power on or off
LBN type standard, none, legacy twin LBN1,legacy twin lnb2 quad etc.
LBN Freq 11500
22khz on off
TP freq all freq>>>>
search option all FTA scrambled
diseqc none, tone boost a, tone boost b, port 1-4
motor off user etc.
legacy switch none or various types of switches

Right now when I look for echo 8,10 I will find the Echo 8,10 satellite in the upper right hand corner.
This is with settings:
echo 8,10
legacy twin lnb1
11250
off
12253
all
port 2
off


When i go to Echo 7, with the following settings I do not get and satellite description in the upper right hand corner.
echo 2
legacy twin lnb2
11250
off
12224
all
port 1 or port = none
off

I cannot get the Echo 7 satellite to add its channels but I do niot think I will be able to get this until I get the Upper right ahnd corner to say Echo 7 when I am in antenna setup mode can anyone please help?

first ,, the diseqc switch you need if you do have 2 separate lnb and to set which lnb you going for Example == you run cable from lnb 8,10 to port 1 ,, you have to set the diseqc setting in your receiver 1 and 119 , echo 7 if you put the cable from the lnb to the diseqc switch port 2 then on your antenna setting its must be the echo7 set on diseqc 2


now on your antenna setting only what i am going make is red color is the set up on your dish setting
that what you describe your dish set up

Satellite All satellites
LBN power on or off
LBN type standard, none, legacy twin LBN1,legacy twin lnb2 quad etc.
LBN Freq 11250
22khz on off
TP freq all freq>>>>
search option all FTA scrambled
diseqc none, tone boost a, tone boost b, port 1-4
motor off user etc.
legacy switch none or various types of switches

Right now when I look for echo 8,10 I will find the Echo 8,10 satellite in the upper right hand corner.
This is with settings:
echo 8,10
legacy twin lnb1 go standerd
11250
off
12253
all
port 1
off


When i go to Echo 7, with the following settings I do not get and satellite description in the upper right hand corner.

I did exactly what you said to do and still no good. Can anyone help me understand how to get the Echo 7 label to come up in the top right hand corner of the screen when I have chose Echo 7 as the satellite with the correct setup. When I go to the antenna setup screen for the Echo 8,10 satellite I get the Echo 8, 10 satellite recognition in the top right hand corner.

Please remember I completely new at this so I might be missig something that I do not know to ask for.
