[QUOTE="a33, post: 1129362, member: 332642"] [I]"The dCSS-422 has 2 standard Legacy outputs and 2 SCR/Legacy outputs. The last 2 ports can independently work in SCR or Legacy Mode, only when powered locally via a 20V power supply.[I]" [/I][/I] I earlier read this sentence, thinking the 20V was needed for operation of SCR or legacy mode on those ports, but reading further the 20V is only needed for using the legacy mode, on the SCR/legacy ports, it seems. And at one location they mention 20V, but at the specs table they write "20V max", suggesting less voltage is also possible? Not an unambiguous manual, I would say. So I'm now inclined to say that an extra PSU would not necessarily be needed, though they write it would be the 'best practice'... I saw that UB3, 1680MHz, is present both for Sky and normal Unicable. Did you use that frequency, for your testing? Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
