[QUOTE="a33, post: 1142941, member: 332642"] Now, you seem to want to keep using the Unicable/JESS/DCSS mode of the LNBs? That complicates your question a lot. (For a legacy setup, this would be quite manageable..) Unicable multifeed is done parallel, so the "switching" is done in the LNBs themselves: they recognize that a receiver command is for them, or for the other LNB(s). So your LNBs must be programmed for that. And your receivers must be able to address both LNBs. Unicable also isn't meant for a motorized setup. This means that there are boundaries, to what you seem to want. You must, I guess, choose what use you want of your setup, in view of those boundaries. Then the setup would follow. For instance, you might need at least one extra cable between dishes and home... greetz, A33 [I]Edit. By the way, the 4-way splitter seems to have powerpass both ways? There is no indication of power pass one way, as I would use/expect for (simultanuous) 4 receiver Unicable use! But the text/power-lines on the splitter housing might not represent what is inside the splitter. You'd have to measures if diodes are in there, or not.[/I] [/QUOTE]
