[QUOTE="a33, post: 1143038, member: 332642"] OK. All receivers except Receiver 4 to the small backup dish, would be the easiest setup. (In your drawing you forgot to draw the 4/1 splitter..) Let's do this test, then? Connect[B] just one[/B] receiver to the LNB, and watch a program. Then disconnect the F-connector, for 15 seconds or so. Then reconnect the cable, and observe how many seconds it takes for the program to (hopefully) return. N.B. [B]Take care not to cause a short-circuit[/B] between core of the cable and the 'ground' of your cable/receiver! (That is always when doing tests under 'live' conditions.) N.B.2 The time period for the program to return might be different for different receivers. So you might test more than one receiver. When you want only receiver 4 to receive multiple sats (and all other receivers then to be switched to the backup dish), and only switch on receiver 4 when you want to go motorized, you could most likely use the receiver 4 [B]USB-port[/B] to switch the 0/12V switch! From what I have seen (but I've not seen ALL!), normal 0/12V switches also switch When switching to the small backup dish then is not necessary anymore, it is very simple.on 0/5V. (So no diseqc switch needed then!) When you [B]do[/B] want Receiver 3 to also receive motorized sats, the easiest setup would probably be with legacy (though extra cables needed).
