I have a H24-700 Direct TV receiver. I purchased a slimline dish with a SL5S4NR2-02 LNB. Will not receive signal, what else is required?

:) Assuming it is pointed correctly, I think you are trying to use a new SWM receiver with a legacy LNB. Does it have one coax or four like your picture shows? You probably need a power inserter. look at forums.solidsignal.com/content.php/1066-Why-do-you-need-a-power-inserter-for-a-SWM-system

You'll need apower inserter & a 8-way switch asdepicted here if it works. http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NTA0WDk5OA==/z/niwAAMXQm7FR6qzq/$T2eC16J,!yUE9s6NEGyfBR6qzqT-Kw~~60_57.JPG

You are not giving enough information to help you. Is this the first time you connected it up? Are you aimed at the FTA satellite located at 97 degrees on the satellite arc? Do you live in the USA, (as I assume) or are you trying to receive some satellite in another country? I assume your X2-FTA box was JUST NOW INSTALLED... and you are trying to adjust to find the satellite? If you aim the satellite dish at the FTA "bird" located at 97 degrees here in the USA... you will receive about 200 channels that are NOT scrambled. If you live in a country other than the USA... you will have to research what FTA "birds" are available in your country. If, however, you tried to connect an existing dish-network or Direct-TV dish to this box (here in the USA)... then yes... all the channels are scrambled! This box is not a box that allows you to UNLAWFULLY receive satellite channels. It is an FTA satellite box. You must use a 36 to 39 inch diameter dish and aim it at the proper satellite to receive the Free-To-All channels. You can go to various FTA websites and research scrambled channels... or other issues... just do a search on google for fta websites.

I have the dish setup and just need the box. What do i need to do to have it fully functional?

yes and no.. 775 error code says that the receiver is not getting a signal from the dish. So, two things your power inserter may be the problem or the splitter where your power inserter is connected that some of the connection isn't tightly connected and also all unused ports should be terminated with small metal caps.

I have dish and even knowing the code for it it would not work. Using separate remotes.

You need a TV connected so that your receiver can have a signal. Should be fine when you get your TV connected. I have seen that message before.

This satellite dish should work with all DirecTV receivers. The center LNB picks up all SD broadcasts, and the two outer LNBs pickup the HD signals.

Awesome product...I love mine. You do need the proper dish receiver to operate the dish. The 311 won't work. When buying the KD5500, it tells which receiver will work. I have the 411K. They are well under $100 at Camping World and Amazon.,

You need a dish to receive satellite tv. Also, note that Linear needs a larger dish than Circular .. at least 90cm. DirectTV and Dish use circular polarization hence they can use smaller dishes (multi-pathing). You will need a dedicated dish and rotator unless you just want to receive just one satellite, such as PBS. With a 6' dish you can get some C-band with a mini-BUD. Sounds like you have some homework to do but in any event this receiver purchased a year ago now has been very unreliable, even without driving the dish rotator motor. Suggest you google Sadoun Satellite and read .. and watch their videos. Good Luck .. enjoy your challenges and rewards. You need a dish to receive satellite tv.

This will work with any of the current "Single Wire" dishes and receivers. If your dish has a single wire coming out of it, with a single LNB, you will be fine. It will NOT work with older dishes and receivers.

I don't know my dish model #. We just upgraded to Dish HD a couple of months ago and it works for us.

I'm not sure. We bought it to go with a HD DVR receiver (Directv). However, neither the LNB or the dish worked. Directv had to replace both. I wouldn't recommend this product.

I have no idea but usually these types of things dont draw much power. of course you would need both the receiver and dish and of course the 2 would draw more than one but once the dish is found the signal I would think its power draw would be minimal. Would be interested to know though.

the thing is Called LMB and no you will also need the dish satellite and receiver. to be able to use dish.

What you would want to do is look at the actual dish. If there are 3 LNB's on the dish then you will be golden. All you will have to do if run your coax to the open LNB port. You will have your own service plan with your dish and will have access to whatever you are subscribed to.

My dish receiver does not work with the 3.0 USB so it is not working for me

What do you mean by module? You only need the SWM and the 3 LNB dish. If you want to use it as single wire to each receiver, if you have more than 2, you need splitters. That SWM only has two outputs for the single wire feature.
