Eurovox MaxV not picking up channels - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

radaudiodesigns · 29-01-08, 12:03 PM

Hi guys, hope you can help me out.

Im based in South Dublin, we have just connected a EuroVox maxV to our N*L line. Unfortunately we are only able to get 95 channels based on 6.887. Dont seem to be able to pick anything else up on any other frequency.

I had a look at the list of numbers, freq. and channels in the other thread, however all of the channel freq. picked up by my box are slightly different. Also i have no idea how to manually add a channel. I tried last night and it deleted everything!

Any advice would be most appreciated!
Cheers

What part of Dublin are you in? You need to clear your channel data and rescan again, but make sure you are doing it from the direct feed into the cable in socket on the back of the EV.

You need to go to menu, config, clear data and then clear channel data. Then do a normal powerscan from 290.000 to 403.000 using symbol rate 6887 N*L. After that just do an update channel, (red button in user installation), to pull the channels in.

North Dublin frequencies are 291.00, 299.00, 307.00, 315.00, 323.00, 339.00, 347.00, 355.00, 363.00, 371.00, 379.00, 393.00 and 403.00/

To manually set frequencies:

Go to User Installation Menu

1. Select channel to be amended
Press Green button - 'Channel Edit'
then Blue button - 'Modify'
2. Change frequency to the correct value
Press OK

3. To add missing frequencies
Press Green button - 'Channel Edit'
then Red button - 'Add'
4. Strictly in the given order:
Type in the Symbol Rate 6.887
Type in the frequency required
Select CH NUM and press the INFO button on your remote
and type in the new Channel Number
Press OK

5. Press Exit to return to User Installation screen
Press Red button - 'Update Channels' (at this point your TV screen may
go blank for bout 5/10 mins but don't panic this is normal).

You will pick up the TV stations this way - happy viewing

cheers folks, im in Greystones kinda South Dublin/Wicklow.

I have the cable plugged into the RF in port on the back of the box. Ive tried to manually put in the channel frequencies, however it doesnt seem to find any channels for those..

The frequencies i have channels under are as follows -

0001 - 258.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0002 - 274.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0003 - 290.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0004 - 306.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0005 - 322.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0006 - 338.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0007 - 354.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0008 - 370.000mhz - 6.887mbaud - QAM64
0009 - 386.000mhz 0 6.887mbaud - QAM64

i dont seem to be able to get any other channel frequencies load. If i enter them manually, they dont find anything either. Its plugged directly into the N*L box on the wall. We dont have an N*L subscription. Do we need the basics? I have 95 channels, all the movies and sports, most entertainment channels and some of the TV channels.

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers
Ryan

Hi I am in South Dublin too, you do need the basic N*L package, as in 42 Euro every 2 months. if you PM your email address, I can send you the CDF for Dublin.

lucky13 · 30-01-08, 11:08 AM

Hey radaudiodesigns - if you can get all the sports and movie channels without paying the basic subscription then why bother getting connected to N*L at all?

I always assumed you needed the basic package otherwise you wouldn't pick up any channels at all

satsmo · 30-01-08, 12:49 PM

radaudiodesigns it has nothing to do with your package, its your area. Greystones in parts is fed by an MMDS transmitter and then communally fed onto cable, that may be your lot for now or at least until it is fully upgraded.

Hi
newbie here so hopefully this is correct place to post
I have the eurovox too and when I do a powerscan it only picks up 29channels that don't save. I have followed most of the guides on here deleting channels etc. I think that it must be down to the scan. I set the scan at 6887 running from 100 to 890.

I've got the cable plugged in to the RF and the scart plugged in to tv

What am I doing wrong???

I'm in Paisley and use v***en (previously N*L)

All suggestions welcome
