    SF 8008 tuner configuration

    I have a motorised system with an Octagon SF 8008. I must begin by saying that I am not at all technically minded and as a consequence have found it very difficult understanding the SF8008. My interest is purely channel surfing. A combination of wind and rust led to my dish and motor falling down and needing replacement. This took a few months and has now been done. On restarting the SF8008 satellite & channel data was missing. I was given instructions(from World of Sat) on how to sort things out and pointed to yourselves for further help. I followed the instructions which involved “ Network Multiboot Image Upgrade” When turning the unit on I get a screen saying Open ATV. Using the menu button I found that the tuner was not configured. I unable to find out how to configure it. How do I do this?
    Thank you

    I assume Multiboot is a choice of images you can put into any of the 4 slots available .
    OpenVix been one
    OpenAtv been another
    Black hole been another.

    Can you remember what Image name you used as might be in another slot?

    Please list the motor you are using. Brand/Model. Tuner setup in most images are almost identical.
    There are 2 selections for a motorized system. Diseqc and Usals. Let's start there.
