What is needed to connect a stand alone box?

I have a friend with a cabin in the mountains. He has the Genie at his permanent residence, but he supposedly has a stand alone set top box.  We tried to connect it to both a standard "round" dish and an HD oval dish and it does not work.  Obviously not both dishes at the same time.
