[QUOTE="a33, post: 964151, member: 332642"] I don't understand your problem here. If you use a diseqc 1.1 switch between a receiver and the two multiswitches, then only one multiswitch gets power of the 1.1-switch; the other one doesn't get power so can't react to the diseqc1.0 command. So, if by any chance multiswitch #1 (at diseqc 1.1, #1) is out of order, you could choose diseqc 1.1 #2 in your receiver, and a connection to multiswitch #2 would be made, with again all the possibilities for the diseqc 1.0-switching. Isn't that what you were after? I guess 0/12volt switches would be cheaper, and could be switched collectively (one collective command-line for all switches). But for individual control, a diseqc 1.1 switch works wonderfully. Only for the TBS6909's you would have the diseqc 1.1-problem I guess; and as you have cascaded the four input-cables (if I understand correctly) I would guess you only need four 0/12volt switches (or homemade frankenswitches) at the beginning of that input-line? [I]Edit: Well, thinking back, I'm puzzeled here: If a TBS6909 has 4 quattro inputs, how does it choose one of the four satellites? Or are 16 cables leading to one TBS6909? Not sure if I understand correctly how you cabled your TBS6909's....[/I] Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
