Diseqc Parameter?

[slayer]

I read in the forum that for the Diseqc Parameter you are to use A for port 1, B for port 2 etc. seeing as it only goes to D, and I am using an emp-centauri 8x1 switch, how do I get it to work for me? to get 82,91,110,119,129 what do I have to do? thanks for any help.

forget diseq 1.0, leave it set at none and use diseqc 1.1 instead

ok. thanks

Try This, keep in mind that Bird ID's are different... ie... 110, 119, 129 etc..

4w and 75e would be your 82 and 91

Hope this kinda helps ya a little bit if anything...

why would he go through a jumbled mess of switches and cables like that if he already has an 8 X 1 switch?

Ya I know he has that switch, was just throwing this out there if his switch setup does not work for some reason....
that's all..

that switch set up would work... That is what it is made for Tried & Tested here

I love the 8x1 switch best out there and if supported and pinwheel does makes narrowing down a problem faster and less confusing on the pinwheel better channel changes to imho

it seems to be working so far.

worked good for a few days, but now the switch isnt switching. it stays locked on 129. if i go on any other sats it says no signal. i tried changing local frequency, tp frequency, diseqc parameter, diseqc 1.1, lnb type from univ_lnb (which i have) to ku_lnb just because i read on a post to try it if having troubles. when i change the parameter or the 1.1 to every other number/letter it stays locked on 129. :( maybe its a ground issue? whats the best way to ground it on a mobile home? (not the kind with wheels) ;) i reloaded the 3.0 file (the re-released on feb 19th one).
any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks

if for some reason my 8x1 is fried and i want to use my old 4x1 and the 22khz switch that swanner suggested, where do i get one? all i have are emp-centauri 4x1's, an 8x1, and a couple sw21's.
again thanks for any help
