Help moving a receiver

[chrisw27]

Okay so I want to move my VIP211 to a TV where its receiving a feed from a 522 via cable (2nd tuner). How do I switch the cable in that room to receive the feed from the satellite instead of the 522 receiver?

I hope I don't have to get a tech to come out here and pay $99.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

You'll have to trace the cables out. If they all go to the same place (home runs) it should an easy swap.

If you have to ask, you may need a tech or a handy kid.

The cable going to the tv now comes from the 522. (one way or another).

You have to connect it to the dish (or switch) to feed a receiver.

What type of dish and switch (if any) do you have there? This can help determine how many cables you will be dealing with. Also, is the 522 and 211 the only receivers you have? Do you need to connect the 2nd tuner from the 522 to the TV you had the 211 at or will you be using the 522 in single mode and removing one TV from your setup?
