  • New SWM DOA?

    Hi,
    I just purchased a SWM8, power supply, and 8-way splitter. I have two receivers, HR24's. Today I have two cables from the dish directly to each receiver. My plan is to do MRV. To test the SWM I disconnected the receivers, I connected the SWM to the 4 cables coming from the Dish, slimline 5lnb, I connected the power supply to SWM one and plugged in the power. Next I connected one of the receivers directly to the power supply, I did remove the B-Band filters. After powering up the receiver I selected option 4 for the oval slimline 5lnb receiver and changed the switch type from multiswitch to SWM. The receiver attempts to talk to the SWM but I get a message back saying that it cannot talk to the SWM. I have tried both receivers. Any thoughts as to what I am doing wrong or did I just happen to get a DOA SWM and/or power supply?

    Thanks,
Working...
