Hi,I hawe dvbsky s950c whitch not working since july or august last year after updating windows,chipset,bios since maybe not isue as now not giving signal and no power to motor dm3800 nothing lights up. In that time many complain about weather/storm and they hawe similar isues.

Then couple days ago i got Digital device cine2 ver.6 installed everything OK and started scanning with DVBViewer and it stopped scanning after 2 3 transponders. Then I don't know I reinstalled or whatever
I managed to scan 13E and 19E, so I said now I'll test and it worked for a few minutes at 80% signal and then stopped. And then somehow it started working again, I watched for about an hour and stopped working.

So today it still doesn't work both cards. I don't know what could be the power supply doesn't reach the motor at all (nothing lights up) when the channel in DVBViewer is pressed.

Please any advice is maybe windows not giving permission to put trought or bios update or chipset update,DVBViewer updated in that time.
Or is it posible that maybe my satelite motor maybe screwing my dvb cards? How i can test motor with multimeter?

check LNB voltage from card
 
i connected another wire for testing it gives 13v on dvbs2 and 18v on dvbs.
Looks like i will need next step test cable that go to the roof and redo/change F connectors, what else?
But cable is black better one,or iff is maybe some oxidized then F connector.
 
corrected mean Vertical, Horizontal voltage
 
The cable was bent in one part and as the wind swayed it left and right, it probably cracked, probably the copper. I shortened it and now everything works. Thanks for your understanding and all your advice for everything else. Best regards from Saša.
 
Dvbsky S950C, signal varies 72% -84%, on some channels 80% -89% etc. Does anyone know if any of these capacitors need to be changed or something else?

I tried with another card and everything is fine, the signal is stable. So it's the card.
