Re: Strange problem with DiSEqC Switch 4 in 1

ftaboy, in the set-up of your box, check that you have not got 2lnbs conected to same port number on switch, should be, lnb1=diseqC 1/ lnb2=diseqC 2, etc, also perhaps try 1 good cable at a time testing each one. if you have tried 3 new switches cant be that. in the diseqC menu, is lnbs set to UNIVERSAL.
also if i remember right you have to have your settings switched to 1.0

Re: Strange problem with DiSEqC Switch 4 in 1

look at the switch setup and channel list in Receiver

hi

may sound stupid: but did you take a look what's in the operator's manual (box + perhaps some quick manual on the switch or lnb)?

Maybe you should just start from scratch.
Disconnect the diseqc switch, make sure all your cables, connections, etc are good.
Make sure everything is correctly entered in your receiver and check your cables ae sound.

hi sir, i checked the switch with 3 LNB's on my DVB card , badly same problem on DVB PC.
ps: DVB card has it own cable , so the problem is not the cable. meaning : switch or LNB are the problem problem but i tried 3 different switchs and checked the short cables to switch, and when directly connect to each LNB every thing work fine.
WTF is the problem?
need help with this badly

Re: Strange problem with DiSEqC Switch 4 in 1

@ftaboy: My reply might be a bit late now because I was not online since yesterday.
DiseqC switch will never give you a 100% return from your connection. The direct connection from the LNB to your box doesnt involve any other electronics devices. When you add a DiseqC switch, you can connect more dishes but the drawback is that you lose some of the signal in the internal noise/destorsion of the Switch. No matter how expensive the DiseqC switches are they will never give you a 100% outcome. Therefore people chose to go for twin tuner.
Another example of this is the broadband companies check your line spead and tell you that you will be getting 19.5mb on a 20mb connection but you actually get about 12mb or 13mb because of your internal viring, microfilters and main sockets.
