Will l be able to use my existing card from my 4121 into your 4921 and if so do l have to do anything for it to work? Reards, Gary
Hi there, when you purchase a new VAST decoder, the new smartcard will be included. Each card is paired to the box at manufacturing stage and can only be used with that box. The new card can be registered at the Mysattv website or by calling 1300 993 376.
Do yu need a smart tv to receive Vast?
Hi Matt,
No, as long as the TV has an HDMI or AV input it just acts as a monitor for the VAST box.
Regards,
Philip
What is the optional ir sensor used for?
The IR sensor allows the decoder to be hidden away. You are still able to operate the remote control by sticking the sensor where it can be seen by the remote.
Regards,
Philip.
Two newbie questions... (1) will this work using the dish, etc., installed by Foxtel a number of years ago? (I no longer have Foxtel). (2) it says on your rear connection info LAN "(future support)" - in the Q&A it appears that some LAN functionality already exists, such as streaming catch up TV. Is any other LAN functionality provided? Remote programming/control, etc.?
Hi David,
Yes, a VAST box works fine on a Foxtel dish. Unfortunately, Altech have removed the catch up via LAN feature on the new boxes. They have said that because most people have smart TVs these days it was a rarely used feature.
Philip
Do they come with smart card
Hi there,
Yes the decoder comes with a smartcard, remote control and power supply.
Cheers
John
Are Sky Racing Channels available in this box?
Hi,
VAST does not carry SKY Racing, Only Foxtel does.

Philip
I have dsr4639 which no longer works in my caravan is your Dsr compatible cheers
Hi there,
The DSR4639 was discontinued a few years ago and now replaced by the DSD4921 with built in 500GB . Another option is the 4901 with built in 1.5TB HDD. Either will do the same job as the 4639.
Cheers
John
Can this device be made WiFi capable?
Hi there,
It can stream catch up TV when connected to a router/modem via an ethernet cable. We have tried ethernet to wireless adapters which seem to work ok. Other option is to look at the Satking 980 as it does do wireless via a wireless dongle.
Cheers
John

The DSD5000 is UEC's successor to the DSD4921RV — previously Australia's most trusted VAST twin tuner satellite set-top box. It carries the same compact chassis but features a complete internal hardware rebuild, designed for both home use and life on the road.
Twin DVB-S2 Tuners (PVR Ready) The DSD5000 features twin DVB-S2 tuners, allowing you to record one channel while watching another. It's PVR-ready with USB storage support ranging from 8GB to 2TB.
VAST Certified It delivers free-to-air satellite TV across Australia, making it ideal for remote and rural areas where terrestrial signals don't reach.
Dual Power Support (12V / 240V) The DSD5000 works equally well at home on 240V AC or on the road via 12V DC, making it a natural fit for caravans and motorhomes.
7-Segment Digital Display A 7-segment front display lets you navigate channels by number — a practical addition over the previous model.
8-Day Electronic Program Guide (EPG) The built-in 8-day EPG includes a search feature, closed captions, audio descriptor support, parental controls, and a clock in standby mode.
Remote Control Extender Port Includes a remote control extender port, useful when the unit is mounted out of direct line-of-sight.
The DSD5000 is the smallest VAST-certified satellite receiver on the market, measuring just 225mm × 42mm × 135mm and weighing 450 grams.
Standby Power Consumption: 0.43A DC without a recording device connected, 0.53A DC with one connected — very low draw, especially important for 12V setups.
Includes the DSD5000 unit, VAST smartcard, remote control, 240V AC power supply, HDMI cable, and user manual.
Whether you're in a rural home or travelling in a caravan or motorhome, the DSD5000 is built to deliver reliable satellite TV anywhere in Australia. Its combination of compact size, dual-power capability, and twin-tuner recording makes it the go-to VAST receiver for both permanent installs and mobile setups.

I had my Satking ProMax automated satellite system supplied and installed just over three years ago, and it has performed reliably for the most part.
A few months ago I encountered an issue and was pleasantly surprised by the level of after-sales support provided during the troubleshooting process. The unit was ultimately returned to Satking, where it was repaired and promptly sent back.
I’m very pleased that I chose a quality Australian product from a reputable company that clearly values its customers.

Our old Solartube fan system was old and was not working well. We selected the Solarking V4 C/W remote and AC backup as a replacement and called SatPlus and left a message and the call was returned. All my questions were well answered; I decided to purchase it, then it arrived and I had it mounted on the roof all within less than a week. The installation went straight forward with no difficulties.
Air flow was about 3m/s with 240Vac (full speed) and 3.4 - 3.6m/s (solar only, supply unplugged) and 4.1m/s outside discharge. Speed does increase when on solar only. I can hear the fan humming on solar only but not as much as the refrigerator, dishwasher or oven.
Functionality; Fan On/Off, 4 x fan speeds work on 240ac and solar (can reduce noise with speed), Remote pairing button, 1,2,4,8hr time delay buttons, and a 25C over-ride.
There is no command feedback to the remote, but I don’t think it is needed as I can hear a light hum change in the ceiling. The 240Vac backup system works day during cloud passing, and also night time delay off.
Because I live in Cairns, the fan regularly starts in the morning and I can let it run another 4, 8hrs after sunset or overnight on the tropical nights.
Overall, my experience was exceptional, every question asked was answered thoughtfully and respectfully, ordered, delivered, working in under a week is right up there with the best. To get both service and performance in the one package is commendable. Not overstated or underdelivered.
