Coolsat 8100 sat: channel loading problems.

[moosenewf]

Installed a new 6x9 fta switch, now C- S 8100 cannot find 110 sat and 82 sat. I have 2 C-S 6100's and a C-S 5000 that find 82 91 110 119 no problem. I’m using two dual lnb dishes. I have checked and switched the sat's lnb's, checked switch ports with ohms meter, switch working fine. switched sat cabled to different ports a number of times, some times finds 110 and 82 but only 2 at a time. tried changing settings on C-S 8100 and match everything up, but that doesn’t work everything just goes haywire. tried manual load, doesn’t work. Tried dowenloading one sat at a time didn't work.question, if I can watch 91, 110, 119 on both C-S 6100,s what would be the problem? except that the C-S 8100 has been nothing but a headache since day one. :confused:
I did have a 8 switch system that worked fine. but kept blowing switches, so i replaced it with a 6x9 switch. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Your blowing switches Eh!!!!!!
You need to power everything OFF whenever your connecting/disconnecting cables around. Your sending surges of electricity whenever your doing that and this equiptment is delicate shit.

also

Are you certain the settings are correct for your 8100 receiver? Since thats the one causing you hardache :confused:

I always unplug receivers first, then remove sat cables. then when I’m finished working on sat's, I reinstall sat cables first, then plug in receivers. I know that much, not sure why switches were blowing. Ever time I go into the receiver and set everything up properly EX:(4-82) (2- 91) (3-110) (1-119) after I save and exit out of the receiver 2 sat's will work properly let's say for instance 110 119 work great, but when I switch to ch 1211 bev ch, it will not work, it shows 110 sat. I go back in and fix that problem I can watch bev channels , but then there are problems with Charlie. the receiver will not save the settings properly. I have just tried resetting everything again, now only a part of sat 82 works. This is a loosing game.Thanks for responding.
