(After clicking on a link below ..............) Dish Positioners (...use the back button to return here)
Primesat V Box Primesat EZ-2000 positioner

Primesat EZ-2000 positioner
with remote control.



Can be used with 4 wire or 5 wire positioning. 0v and 5v included. Reed or optical sensors
Some actuators or H to H motors use a 5 wire system. This could be an optical sensor or a potentiometer.
Here 0v and 5v are needed. However, this positioner can also be used with 4 wire systems as well. Here
the 5v and 0v are ignored and the other 4 terminals are used. If there was a need for a narrow positioner
this might be worth considering. Width only 8cm. It is unusual for a motorised dish to see more than about
30 satellites and so 32 positions should be enough for most applications.
A high quality stand alone dish positioner. 36 volts. 3.5 amps. 32 satellite position memories.
This positioner is also ideal for the control of a vertical actuator in an inclined orbit polar mount motor.
(Please note this is not a V Box. It is for independent control of a 36 volt motor not DISEqC 1.2 control.)
The motor test cable with "V Box - motor fitting guide" may also be of interest.
("Motor control cable" is also available).

Please note that the V Box can do exactly the same as this positioner. The V Box comes with a separate
handset for manual use. If it is a 4 wire reed switch motor the V box will work exactly the same.
Also the V box has a better build quality. You can order it here.
If you have a 5 wire motor with an optical sensor, you can add the 5V from a 5 volt power supply.
Connect the +5V to the motor and connect the negative or earth side of the power supply to
the negative or earth side of the sensor connection on the V box.

Primesat PR-1200 V Box with handset.



Convert DISEqC to 36 volt positioning for larger dishes. Dish positioner.

Features - • Sleek retro design. • 99 programmable memories. • East operation and quick installation.
• Short circuit and overload protection. • Anti-noise circuit to avoid miscounting. • Ideal for DiSEqC 1.2 compatible receivers.
• Re-synchronize function. • Fully automatic or stand0alson using remote control included.
Primesat V Box with handset -3 digit LED display. Use automatically without handset or with handset.
The V Box converts DISEqC 1.2 to 36 volt positioning for larger dishes. A V Box converts the DISEqC commands of
modern digital receivers to 36 volt positioning for larger dishes using 36 volt motors. The Primesat V Box has 99
satellite positions and a 3 digit display. A V Box also comes with a handset for manual use and sometimes
the handset may be needed to do a reset (even in automatic use). Anti noise circuit to avoid miscounting.
Remember ... DISEqC commands on an 13/18V LNB cable only provide limited voltage and up to about 300mA.
That is only 0.3 of an amp. A V Box converts this to 36V and about 2 to 3 amps for larger dishes using 36 volt motors.
Typically 1.2m dishes and larger use 36 volt motors. Use the fully automatic option. Just select the channel on your
DISEqC receiver and your 36 volt motor / dish will move to the correct satellite and channel. That means do not use
the V Box handset (manual use only) use the receivers handset with the V Box in automatic mode. The LNB and
control cable connects to the V Box. A short "fly lead" needs to go from the V Box to the modern receiver, then everything
is controlled by the receiver's handset automatically. Can also be used as a stand-alone positioner as a handset is
included. (Again remember ... no need to use the handset in automatic mode.) 4 core motor control cable is available
from our cable page. To connect to a V Box, the 4 motor wires connect to the back of the V Box. I.e. the two motor
wires and the two sensor wires. The LNB also connects to the V Box. A short F connector "fly lead" links from the
V Box to the LNB input of the satellite receiver. Motor control cable is available from the cable page
The motor test cable with "V Box - motor fitting guide" may also be of interest.
