Silver Member Username: JustforhahasPost Number: 652 Registered: Jul-08 | Sure you can ... all ya need to do is have a dedicated LNB aimed correctly on a dish to the satellite/s you want (Bev and/or DN)... cable them to a switch, and from switch to the receiver... then input "anntenna/dish" settings into the receiver, telling it what LNB's are aimed at which satellites and which ports are used at switch... upload the most current file for your receiver from your PC... then scan the satellites using the receiver menu and remote and then... in receiver, set the date and time, and let the guide (EPG) populate and get the info... then reboot the receiver off/on using rear switch... then watch TV.. You will receive whatever channels that are on the satellite you aimed at and scanned..Current files.bins are "coded" for BOTH DN and BEV signals and have an Autoroll feature to input the most current keys that DN and Bev require, and are using.. |

Bronze Member Username: BouttepPost Number: 74 Registered: Apr-06 | justforhaha's so the same bin is good for both DN & BEV | |

Bronze Member Username: BouttepPost Number: 75 Registered: Apr-06 | thank you ! justforhaha's . one more thing where would i find the latest channel list with all local channels for both DN & BEV i have a sonicview 4000 Thanks again for all your help |

Gold Member Username: KirankumarNO Bashing Post Number: 2995 Registered: Oct-07 | go to www.lyngsatdotcom | |
Silver Member Username: JustforhahasPost Number: 654 Registered: Jul-08 | This site here has a listing of every satellite that Dishnet (DN) uses and what channels are on each satellite.. www.dishuser.com Performing SCANS with your receiver captures all the local channels and everthing that is available in your particular area...Both DN and Bev, if you have an LNB aimed at them, as I mentioned above.. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 12394 Registered: Jun-06 | Three standard LNBs to two DisEqC switches for two receivers. You can mix DN and BEV Dishes to the switches

Bronze Member Username: BouttepPost Number: 76 Registered: Apr-06 | how can i split the signal into 4 receivers | |
Silver Member Username: JustforhahasPost Number: 661 Registered: Jul-08 | Thats what switches are for...The switch type you need will depend on the LNB types you have and how many LNB's, either Legacy or Dish Pro (clearly marked on the LNB's) for example...3 Dish Pro LNB's to 4 receivers = DP 34 switch |
|
Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 12402 Registered: Jun-06 | If you have Dish pro LNBs use a DP44 with a power insert - Not a DP34. Overall you will be happy you did that and you can go to 4 LNBs. If you have standard LNBs, and starting our afresh, use a 4 to 4 spliting switch. If you want to do it on a budjet using standard LNBs and you already have some equipment in place use the diagram I posted above and add amplified splitters at each LNB output and create two more DisEqC inputs for two more receivers. This kind of exercise is worthwhile only if you adding to an existing system. DP34 and particularly DP44 may not work well with some non DP LNBs |

Silver Member Username: TherepoFtaview.com Post Number: 222 Registered: May-07 | DishPro switches are used with DishPro LNBs. Period. Non-DP LNBs, Dish/Bev "Legacy" LNBs or DTV style require a multiswitch to provide more than 2 receiver outputs from a dual LNB. With this type of multiswitch, you connect each LNB output from a dual LNB to the switch. Each LNB output is then dedicated to a specific polarity/voltage. 13v gives the right-hand polarity (usually referred to as V or vertical, although not technically correct in the case of circular LNBs) while the 18v give left-hand (usually likewise referred to as H or horizontal). Since only 1 polarity can be accessed in the coax at one time using standard LNBs, this is why you should not use a "splitter". Splitters are used for cable TV mostly, where all channels are present in the coax all the time; in that case (cable TV) you can split the signal as much as you want, with enough power being present (may need an inline amplifier). Standard LNBs, however, require a voltage selected multiswitch because of the reason given above. A dual LNB can be fitted with one 3x4 multiswitch, for example, to give 4 outputs to 4 receivers, or to 4 diseqc switches. Two LNBs can use a special multiswitch called a 4x4, where again both outputs from standard LNBs are connected to the 4 input ports on the switch, and 4 outputs are present to 4 receivers. This type of switch will use 22khz signal also to select between the 2 LNBs. DN Legacy switch called SW44 is of basically the same hookup, for 2 LNBs to up to 4 receivers, but uses SW pulse rather than 22khz to select the LNB. You cannot, or should not, connect 4 standard LNBs to ANY type of 4in-4out switch. Period. |
