Part1: Change IP address of MOI

The default IP address of MOI Streaming box is 192.168.1.188, if this IP is not in your network IP range, you need to either change MOI IP to your network IP range or change your network IP range to 192.168.1.XXX to make MOI accessible.Following the below steps.

Step1:Connect Ethernet port “LAN1″ of MOI to your network router or switch

If your router is not in IP range192.168.1.XXX, change your router IP to 192.168.1.1. Then change your computer IP address to any IP address in the range 192.168.1.2 – 192.168.1.254 with network mask 255.255.255.0 and gateway 192.168.1.1 as on the picture below:

 Step2: Connect to MOI via SSH protocol or Web User Interface

Now your computer, your router and MOI box are in the same IP range, you may connect to MOI via SSH protocol or Web User Interface. To access MOI from Web User Interface.

Click “IP Setting”, Here you can enable or disable “DHCP”:

Enable DHCP (It’s not recommended unless you know exactly how to find your MOI IP later).

After you select “Enable”, you can click “save” directly, then MOI will receive a random IP address from the Ethernet server, since it is dynamic, the realtime IP can’t be displayed, if you want to check the new IP address, you will need to access the DHCP of your router settings, there you can find MOI by looking for its Mac address.

Disable DHCP (it’s strongly recommended you check disable DHCP)

You can change the IP manually, simply change the”192.168.1.188” to any IP address which is included in your Ethernet IP range. For example, if your previous network router IP range is 192. 168.15.xxx and you want to keep using that IP range for your router and computers in the network, you can simply change MOI IP to the IP range of 192.168.15.xxx ,set subnet Mask to what you’re currently using(normally 255.255.255.0) and set Gat Way to your router IP address. click “save”, then your MOI box will be assigned with the new IP.

More installation guide of this part, you can see it on TBS6925 user manuals.

Step2:  Installing Easy Blindscan

Firstly, you need to download the latest Easy Blindscan from http://cjcr-soft.com/software/easy-blindscan/.It is free. After download, run Easy Blindscan and you will see the main window of the software. Then, it’s time to set all the parameters.

Step3: Operate Easy Blindscan with TBS6925

Usually EBS will detect the TBS6925 automatically. On the main menu, you will see seven optional buttons. Start with” General.” and choose the right device and the right satellite that your satellite dish are connecting. You can also set the routes for Reports and Save transponders.

The next is jump to “LNB & DiSEqC”, Set the LNB and DiSEqC according to your actual circumstance. If you are not using a DiSEqC, skip this step.

Thirdly, “Scan range”, setting a scan range is very important. It includes frequency range, Symbol rate range, polarization, Steps.etc. When you add all this information, the satellite range will appear in the column. Please note that the frequency range should be based on the symbol rate of the card and LNB parameter.

While scanning, you will be able to see one window to display the process of scanning.

After scanning is done, you will go to the “General Report” and” Satellite Report “page where shows the satellite frequency result.

Note: There will be a TXT and INI file where show all the information EBS can scan. The TXT file contains all the detailed information of the scanned frequencies, including symbol rate, standard/modulation etc. while the INI file can be used in the software application that you have choose in INI format, such as DVBDream or AltDVB etc.

Step 1: Install Hardware and Software

Insert TBS6984 TV tuner card into the PCIe slot, and secure it to the computer tower frame by using the supplied screw. And then install Windows driver and DVBDream from CD( TBS attached both on the package). You can install both of them according to the regular TV tuner card driver installation.

Note: Recently DVBDream can’t support four channels in one window. You need to make four copies of DVBDream application and rename each one in order to lock DVB-S2 signals from different tuners.

Step 2: How to Scan Satellite TV on DVBDream

2.1 DVBDream-> Device -> Options->Start

Run DVBDream under “dvbdreamA” folder, Click “Device” on “Options” menu. You can see controlled tuner name on the dialog. Sometimes, if device not started, you need to choose correct device from the up and down arrow and click “Start” to initialize device.

TBS 6984 BDA DVBS/S2 A Tuner/Demod = Device 1

TBS 6984 BDA DVBS/S2 B Tuner/Demod = Device 2

TBS 6984 BDA DVBS/S2 C Tuner/Demod = Device 3

TBS 6984 BDA DVBS/S2 D Tuner/Demod = Device 4

To setup satellite DiSeqc switch, click on “Diseqc” on “Options” menu. If you don’t use any Diseqc, just choose “None”, if you do use Diseqc, choose correct Diseqc type, port and click “Add Satellite”. Choose correct satellite from scrolling down menu, set up LOF and other parameters.

2.2 Channels -> Manual Scan -> Save Channels

After completing Diseqc and LNB setting, click “Scan” or “Manual Scan” on “Channels” menu. The scanning is starting. It might take several minutes to finish the scanning. Then the programs will be on the list, click “Save Channels” to save all the channels available.

To be mentioned, DVBDream allows links to different Video/Audio codec to change Video/Audio codec, click “Video” on “Options” menu. Choose the Video/Audio Codec and Renderer you are in need.

Step3 : How to Watch Four TV Channels Simultaneously

As a unique DVB S2 quad tuner card, TBS6984 allows you watch four TV channels simultaneously. Now let’s show you how to get it. As mentioned above, You need make another three copies of DVBDream application and rename them such as dvbdreamB,dvbdreamC,dvbdreamD. The next is the same as Step 2. The only difference is selecting another tuner device, for example “2” TBS 6984 BDA DVBS/S2 B Tuner/Demod. You can repeat the steps for Tuner C and D.

When you have scanned TV channels successfully via the four dvbdream (A, B, C, D), you can watch four different TV channels from four different transponder or satellite at the same time. Keep in mind one DVBDream can control one tuner only.
