Diseqc switch and motor

[serge]

Has anyone got this receiver working a diseqc motor through a diseqc switch
Tried a number of setups without success?

Thanks

in theory when motor is in front of the diseqc switch it should receive all commands, the switch should receive the 1.0 or 1.1 commands
On each sat position you select the correct diseqc switch command for the correct LNB fixed or motorized dish, you should also indicate to the system you are using usals or 1.2 diseqc. If using 1.2 set all positions if like you are not using fixed lnb's. Afterwards change sat locations for fixed LNB to the correct diseqc port.

Then a lot will depend how the receiver handles the commands?
disadvantage: dish will always move to the selected sat possition.

Hi

Are you saying that Diseqc switch has to be before or after the motor switch?

Thanks

receiver > dish motor > diseqc switch this way all commands go through motor and should execute.
I have it reversed and the motor misses commands and I have to issue a goto satellite position before I can use the motor correctly: loses its position. (diseqc 1.2 motor on 1.1 switch)
