Polarizer

[deaner]

I would like to have someone tell me how to wire my polarizer to the General Instrument Inovater 450I reciever and back to the Von Weise Actuator Model V 76.5. The polarizer is on a Chaparral CB 1317627 Volts 15-22. This is the automatic C/KU. I am wondering if Von Weise is still in business and associated with Prime Focus. Any help you can give me will be appreciated as I am at a stand still until someone can lead me in the right direction. Thanks for your time as I am stuck! If you need more information, let me know and I will try to come up with it.

should be the same as in this thread

the von weise might take three sensor wires what kind of paperwork did it come with or do a board search for von weise

If I could change out my present lmb to bsc621-2c/ku lnbf , it would take only one rg6 wire into the vbox and if I could keep the actuator hardwired into the vbox it would make this part more simple? I am using the mercury 2 as the receiver. Can this be done and is the vbox capable of using the hard wire for my actuator?
I have an old 10 foot perforated disk with the old chaparral lnbf and a polarizer.Is it possible to make this change or is this the wrong lnbf? Will the vbox accept the hard wire? thanks and if I need to answer more questions I am ready.

the v-box only controls the big dish actuator (motor)

so if you wanted it so just the mercury would control the polarity of the lnbf then yes a bsc621 or bsc621-2 would work.

some things to consider
the bsc621-2 is a universal and the 4dtv doesn't like it
the bsc621-2 has a built in diesqc switch ( so you can use 1 coax connection) this is important if you already have switches in your current setup.
the bsc621 has a built in 22k switch ( so you can use 1 coax)

to work around any limitations you might have with switches in you current setup running two coaxes would solve the problem.

i'm currently running a coolsat 5K, v-box III, bcs621 and a BUD and love it. planning on setting up a second one soon.
