My System: Skystar 2 PCI card; Dreambox 7020S 2x Eagle Linux Boxes Moteck motorised setup with 88cm dish. Multi LNB bracket |
I have just wired up 4 quad lnbs - but when i configure in Eagle box (running gemini 4.1.0), i'm not getting any proper signal. They work fine with direct connection. Just wondering, do i have to match the ports on the switch with specific ports on the lnbs?? I had just connected up without any regard for this... | ||

My System: Dreambox 500S & 7020s. Technomate 9100 & 1500. Force frontier fixed, Raven 90 fixed, Triax 90 motorised dish. Diablo & dragon cams. | Have you double checked that each port (eg.A/A) is correctly configured with the satellite/lnb connected to it, and DiSEqc 1.0 selected? Regards, Ollie | ||

My System: Technomate TM6800D & TM1000D+ receivers, Stab H-H90 motorised Triax 1m dish 42E to 30W. Fixed Orbital 1m on 26E, 2 x minidishes.DigitAlB movies. A Bigsat BS-S77CX and a Sky Dodgibox. | No it doesn't matter which port of each LNB you use. You just need to make sure that for each satellite the correct port of the Diseqc 1.0 switch is selected, i.e the one that has the LNB/dish aligned to that satellite. Robbo ![]() | |||
