Signal problem in Humax 5400z...

[cogil]

I was fed up by choosing Humax but I got solutions with the passage of time I replaced many switches and finally I could succeed ,,,In fact now my set up(in Lahore) is quite different than earlier(at Gujrat),,,Now I'm using twin LNBs and there are more complicacies ,,,Anyhow your ports not yours yours DiSEqC ports will be set only with original firmware it is confirmed
camelot,,,,plz encourage babajee! after all he is only one Baba in our forum

I have had the same problem on my receiver Micro x but found out it always happened when the firmware is changed, plus it happens even on fta receivers when i change to patch software.
have learnt to change a channel, swith of the receiver, and get it back on then it will show, otherwise it shows scrambled with the diseqC connected.
if i connect the lnb straight to receiver the problem doesnt occur.
I assume the problem is the time taken to switch the diseq and then compare the emus, the receiver times it out as no signal or bad signal.
I think we have to determine the diseq switching speed and the receiver allowance setting speed.

Babaji,
I'm helpless in this regard.
I beleive ,it is not a firmware problem.
I have had some similar problem in another receiver..LG...ie.after I upload the channel settings through pc...after connecting to tv there is no signal from my C- Band LNB. So I have to do a manual search for all transponders to get the signal from LNB.
Another one similar problem happened to another receiver ....In Hotbird some frequencies was unreachable. It shows the signal strength but quality remains zero. So I did ;;;;; I removed the Cable from the DiseqC out to receiver and put a new cable instead and insulated the connector. These things helped me a lot. These are practical experience.
My Opinion is either U try to swap ur LNB or Diseqc port.
But one thing is sure... U have to disable the 0/12v in antenna settings.
Be optimist.... these are the starting troubles,
Later u love ur Hummy like ur family member or more than that. :P

I do agree with "swap" and for this a hard "kasht" is needed in HOT weather

gud news brothers finally i got the solution i borrowed an imported diseqc from my friend and now i think my problem is solved i asked my other friend to send me one from dubai a diseqc of apson ... thanx to everyone....

although i have to do one more "Phateek" for humax....

[cogil]

thanks for that info baba4u, it has shown us the problems we do have with diseqc, will try and improve too.

i know, i told you from the beginning, its the DISEQc problem. when i travelled abroad i brought two spare SPAWN switches so that i can count on something.

the cheaper switches available these days are of no use. but one thing i must add here, HUMAX's tuner sux anyway, some other new chinese receivers are way better than Humax. i keep my HUMAX for testing and experiments only now.

so dont just stick to HUMAX, there are other members in the FAMILY who deserve attention too

[ccchandran]

Please choose menu -Toh-config and OK Send DisEqc twice for cascade OFF

dear ccchandran, in my case this was not the issue, i had checked it.

thanks and regards

thanks and regards

I solved my problem with same DiSEqC switch ,so it is not a big issue
Still problem with Humax is pending will try to solve in a cloudy day

[baba4u]

humax is also quality conscious ... it made me thin in 2 3 days i was very happy wid the supermax it had no zig zags ... a trustful life partner never lied to me but humax u guys know abt it...very crucial abt the accesories.. conclusion is tht i fulfilled alot "Phateeks" for this stb...
