CaptiveWorks Help with setup

[spitzer635]

Was wondering I have am good at setting up my recievers with my old dish network equipment meaning their sat and there LNB's and there switch. Can I also use the old direct equipment. If I do could you tell me witch sat to search for and the setting that I should be using to set this up. I know there is a total of 4 LNB's. Also do I download the bins as I would for the DP setup. Any help would be great.


Thanks Spitzer

Yes, a Direct TV LNB will work!! Use a Regular D-TV Single LNB(single or Dual out-put LNB). You will need 2 LNBs attached together, for 110 & 119(82-91). They sell special brackets to attach the 2 LNBs together or you could use Zip Ties!! Use your regular Disque Switch that comes with the box or order a new one! I use Port 1=119 & port 2=110. From the back of the dish looking forward, put the 2nd LNB on the LEFT side of the LNB on the dish, that's 119(or 82). So you have 110 on the right side(or the LNB on the dish already) & 119 LNB on the left side of that. I would try & scan or set-up 110 first then move to 119 & adjust according!! The Settings:
LNB Type=Standard
11250
Disque 1.0=Port 1=119 port 2=110
Let me know how it goes!! ThanX Satguy 2

or you can use two seperate dishes aimed at each satellite-110-119or91-82 which ever you favor
