I've got a motorized 90cm Fortec dish with an Invacom QPH lnb and a SG2100 motor. I have a Pansat 9200HD receiver.
I would like to add a fixed dish to the mix, but don't know how to do it.
Can someone explain how to do this and how I would change the settings on my receiver.
Thanks
 
Easiest thing to do is to add the fixed dish and a diseqc switch. Needs to go between the motor and the LNB's


receiver---motor-----diseqc-port 1 to KU of Invacom
--------------------------diseqc port 2 to DBS side of Invacom
--------------------------dioseqc port 3 to fixed dish

only difference is the fixed dish the motor settings are set to "disable"

Are the receivers in the same room?
Something like this......

Receiver1-----Receiver2-------Motor-------DiSEqC 1--------------QPH "L"
...............................................................DiSEqC 2--------------QPH "C"

...............................................................DiSEqC 3--------------LNB on other Dish
 
Thanks for your help guys.
I looked around the house and don't have a spare diseqc, but I do have a SW21.
Will this work?
Motorized dish to 1
Fixed dish to 2
Output to receiver?
 
I wasn't doubting Iceberg's advice at all.
It's just that I had a spare SW2 laying around.
