| Post subject: | HELP - Diseqc setup and Skystar2 |
I have a Skystar2 and am trying to setup two satelites through a diseqc swiitch. I have tried two different switches, a four port and a two port switch. No matter what I try I can not get the switch to "switch". I have defined a two port diseqc switch on the capture card setup screen, with a lnb attached to each connection on the diseqc, I have defined two seperate sources under video sources. I have defined two connections under input connections. No matter what whenever I pick the second connection and try to do a scan it always picks up channels from the first satelite. Can anyone help? ________ DIGESTIVE DISORDERS ADVICE |

Anyone? Is nobody answering because it just worked for them? I don't think I have done anything strange and I have actually tried on two difference machines and cards as well. ________ Desperate housewives advice |

Well I got it working sort of. I had to choose tone instead of diseqc, even though the diseqc is clearly labeled: Point red DiSeqc switch Frequency Range 950-210MHz Insertion Los: 3dB Power: 12-20v DC/ Control Signal: Position + Option Address: 15Hex It will at least scan properly now but it doesn't switch reliably yet. Still trying to pin that down. ________ Lsd Rehab Dicussion |

I have been fighting with disecq switches also. What I have tried and has worked is adding the 22khz switch on the port 2 and turning it off on port 1. What it means is on the first LNB add 12750 to the LoF and on port 2 (lnb 2) add 11700. There is also a print on how to add a 600 ohm resistor to a disecq to enable the switch to work with dvb cards. Some people need it others don't. Just search the mytheatre forums that is where I seen it and search for 22Khz switch you should find it easily. Good luck. |

Sorry canuk1974 I lost you. What did you mean by "on the first LNB add 12750 to the LoF and on port 2 (lnb 2) add 11700" Did you mean go into the LNB setup and just add those two numbers respectively? Were you then able to still select Diseqc ? Because I still can't switch reliably. Oh and thank you thank you thank you for responding. I thought I was all alone in here. ________ Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race History |

Did you figure it out yet. Sorry I have been busy, and haven't been checking the forum but if you still need help just let me know either way. |

Nope haven't figured it out yet. I saw that you were active over on hoochster's but didn't want to bug you. If you could post your exact settings that would be great. ________ SYNTHETIC WEED |

Okay first things first what sat's are you trying to get first and then maybe we can get to the bottom of this. It could be a patch that you need to apply. I also noticed that you said you tried a 2 port switch is that a tone switch? Let me know I will keep this thread up here. |

This is all the information I have: Code: Point red
DiSeqc switch Frequency Range 950-210MHz Insertion Los: 3dB Power: 12-20v DC/ Control Signal: Position + Option Address: 15Hex So I don't think it is a tone switch, I am assuming when it says DiSeqc it means DiSeqc but... And it doesn't matter which 2 NA birds I choose , I can't flip between them reliably. ________ Rhode island medical marijuana |
