Please what do you have connected to your unit?
DiSEqC switches, USALS motor, Twin LNB's etc.

Are you using a community antenna?
Do you have the unit set to vertical polarity only etc?

Also check that your cables are clean with no bad connections.

tengo una antena individual no tengo nada de disec ni nada parecido es una antena normal y corriente y el único problema lo tiene el v8x porque tengo un V8 honor y un V8 Nova y no tiene ningún problema los puedo apagar que no pierden la señal de antena.debe ser un problema de las actualizaciones del v8x . Este aparato siempre tiene este problema en la pérdida de señal. Tienes que mover un poquito el cable de antena desenroscar y volver a enroscar y vuelve a aparecer la señal pero esto no debería de pasar. En el modelo V8 Nova o V8 honor no pasa y los conecto al mismo sitio que el v8x.

Thanks for the reply.

GT Media are working on this problem.

Instead of unplugging your cable you could go to the menu and turn the LNB power to "OFF" and then "ON" again.

Thanks. In fact, replacing the power supply with 12V / 2.5 amps eliminated the problem. So the factory 1.5 amps cannot withstand the load and the decoder loses the signal.

A question
Increase the S / Q level by putting a 2.5 A source or did it stay the same?

hello
can you help me test this issue with another 12V / 1.5 amps(not factory adapter) or 12V / 2.0 amps?
I need to confirm whether the root cause is a power adapter problem.
thank you very much.

With another 12 V / 1.5 A (not the factory adapter) the signal is properly maintained, but I do not have another 12 V / 2.0 A power supply.

Yo he probado y se ha solucionado el problema con el adaptador de corriente del V8 Nova que tenía guardado en la caja. Es problema del adaptador de corriente da igual el voltaje porque el del V8 Nova es igual de 12 voltios y 1,5 amperios y ya no pierde la señal de momento al apagarlo y volverlo a encender.parece que ya está solucionado debe ser problema de algunos adaptadores de corriente.

Interesting Tom.w
I did not think of the power supply unit as an issue in this.
It may be the power supply limiting power that is triggering the LNB over current at start up power on surge.
Also at this start up time the processor is very busy setting up the unit from boot. That also uses a lot of power.

I will test this when I am home Thursday, and as far back as with my old V8 Golden that would not hold LNB power when switching my large network.

yes.
So i need to more users try to do this solution.And i will discuss with our hardware engineer.
Because this is not a 100% problem, we still need to find the cause of the problem to prevent this problem from recurring in the future.

I still have the problem of the TPs without signal in the V8X even when I change the power adapter, I already provide several satellites and it is the same for example in the intelsat 21 in the TP 3720 V and 3760 V when changing to another TP Going back to those mentioned I get the message of no signal, then I move the thread of the coaxial cable connector or as mentioned I turn off and on the power to the LNB and the signal returns, can someone please help me?
