OTHER DiSEqC Switch question

[stecle]

I purchased a EMP-Centauri DiSEqC switch S8/1PCN-3 to connect 7 LNB's to my STB. http://www.emp-centauri.cz/index.php?la ... view&id=63

I am confused however on how to configure the DiSEqC settings on my STB. Here are the options it gives me on the DiSEqC 1.1 menu:

1 cascade M1 (1-4 ports)
1 cascade M2 (1-4 ports)
1 cascade M3 (1-4 ports)

2 cascades (1-16 ports)

I assume I use the 2 cascades setting since the other options are limited to 4 ports? Secondly do I select "disable" on the DiSEqC 1.0 menu?

I appreciate all help.

Actually that's a receiver question. Which receiver do you have?

Correct.

Yes.

Thanks for the feedback. I will give it a try.

BTW,
in that case you have to set the DIPswitches of the EMP-switch to "mode Diseqc 1.1".

If you choose another mode (e.g. diseqc 1.0+diseqc 1.1), you have to change settings in your receiver accordingly.
