[QUOTE="kevjs, post: 1026548, member: 257344"] My TRIAX SAT>IP Tuner has different LNB Options - Quattro/Quad&DiSEqC/Unicable. My Assumption (and initial playing with the HL input) is that there is internal switching - i.e. LNB1 input is not connected directly to tuner 1 but is infact switched as needed. [B]When in Quad/DiSEqc Mode the LNB[/B] : Tuner relationship is a 1 to 1 - this being the only mode where DiSEqC is of any use. You can connect in any combination you want - e.g. I have LNB 1,2,3 connected to Astra 28,2 and LNB 4 connected to 19,2. TVHeadend copes with this fine - not sure about "regular" receivers. [B]When in Quattro Mode the LNB[/B] : Tuner relationship is broken, instead the unit manages the routing - e.g. if Tuner 1 and 4 need H/L then that single input is routed to them, while Tuner 2 might be using H/H and Tuner 3 might be using V/L. This needs to be connected correctly to a Quattro LNB [B]When in Unicable mode [/B]you choose the channel and frequency (no idea if it's Sky or the EN standard) and the single feed is split between all the tuners internally. This (Quad/Unicable) is how Sky boxes work too AIUI. [/QUOTE]
