  • Install SWM8 with LNB5 + 95 Degree Dish

    My setup:
    LNB5 - 4 cable out from dish
    International Dish 95 degree - 1 cable out from dish
    HR23-700 HDDVR receiver

    I follow the SWM8 installation diagram and connect the 4 cables from LNB5 to the 4 input port of SWM8 and the 95 degree line to the Flex port #1.

    When I config the dish, there are options for:
    Dish Type #12:Slimline5 & 95 (I can change switch type to SWM)
    Dish Type #18:Slimline-5S (SWM)

    Which one I should pick?

    If I pick #12 with switch type change to SWM, I saw a table showing the installation status:
    Odd 13V 95 - "Red Cross"
    Odd 13V 99 - OK
    Odd 13V 101 - OK
    Odd 13V 103 - OK
    Odd 13V 110 - "Grey out"
    Odd 13V 119 - OK
    Even 18V 95 - "Grey out"
    Even 18V 99 - "Red Cross"
    Even 18V 101 - "Red Cross"
    Even 18V 103 - OK
    Even 18V 110 - OK
    Even 18V 119 - OK

    If I pick #18, I saw a table showing the installation status:
    Odd 13V 99 - OK
    Odd 13V 101 - OK
    Odd 13V 103 - OK
    Odd 13V 110 - "Grey out"
    Odd 13V 119 - OK
    Even 18V 99 - "Red Cross"
    Even 18V 101 - "Red Cross"
    Even 18V 103 - OK
    Even 18V 110 - OK
    Even 18V 119 - OK

    What possible can go wrong here?

    Answer my own question

    Thanks for those who read this message....
    Found the issue, I swapped the 95 and one of the line from LNB5. That's the root cause of this issue. Now it is fixed.

    To those who have similar setup & dish configuration,i.e. LNB5 + 95 with HR23 & SWM8, choose the #12 option in dish type: Slimline5 & 95, Switch type: SWM. All set.

      So you had had the cables swapped by accident at first?

      The 95 should be using the flex ports.
      Been here a long time . . .
