For the CM 1.8m I use a Maxplus 2100 and for the FIBO 120 a OPENBOX F-500 (control it by hand with the front Up/DOWN buttons )
Made a diseqc-remote interface to automaticly control the changer .
The loop-trough of my Clarke-Tech 5000 (DrHD F16) is able to switch a GT-DS81 diseqc 1.1 switch .
Connected the 8 out-ports to small 12 v relays .
Checked out the button configuration of a Maxplus 2100 (second) remote and let those relays "push the button" .
The Maxplus is connected to the screen of a portable DVD player (small , and cheap on the second hand market)
Easy to make setting corrections .
I noticed the IR led of the diseqc-remote keeps blinking , thats no problem with switching but I think the remote battery wont last long .
Have to make a one-shot circuit for that .
Nice way to control diseqc 1.2 with diseqc 1.1 commands, with existing equipment...!
How do you plan to make the one-shot circuit?
