I recently bought the SX88 V2 4k with Open VIX. I'm using a motorised dish and want to use USALS.
The fact that there are no instructions with the box does not help, but using the rather dated instructions for Open VIX ( from 2014), I think I've set it up correctly. My problem is that USALS seems not to work at all with this box. I can scan in one satellite e.g. 19 degrees east, but if I try to move to another satellite e'g 13 degrees east, these is no evidence of a signal at all.
This is in contrast to my old Technomate 5402HD. This box has no problem at all in moving from one satellite to another using USALS settings.
The best I've been able to do with the Octagon is to disable USALS, rely on DiSEqC 2.1 and set up each satellite individually, which is frankly tedious.
So for me USALS works with the Technomate and the motorised dish but not with the Octagon SX88. I cannot help feeling that the fault lies with either the Octagon or the way I've set it up. Any guidance would be much appreciated to get the Octagon to use USALS.
