[QUOTE="a33, post: 928145, member: 332642"] Hi nadal, I would say the 11/15 volts have two functions: - information supply (for switching-function between V and H), - power supply. If you use your 11/15 volt stb for power supply, the voltage would drop a little. I would think your 15 volts would drop below the information-function-threshold, which would be around 15 volts. If you feed the switch and LNB [B]also[/B] with a (higher!) voltage from another stb, that stb [B]takes over[/B] the function of power supply, and the 15 volts wouldn't drop so much. So I think your theory is about correct! And your proposed solution would work, I guess, if you supply "extra" power to switch [U]and[/U] LNB (power inserter [U]before[/U] the switch, not after; that would be best I guess). What I would like to know: How about testing the other stb supplying power to switch and LNB, but 13 volts instead of 18 volts? Does your 11/15 volt stb function properly then, also? Or only with 18 volts (i.e.: more than 15 volts)? greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
