- An educational video explain exactly how the new Slim Line LNB works,
and how to install it. It takes eight satellite feeds and puts them on
one cable that can be split inside the building. - Věda a technologie
Great info.. I feel much better about asking about a two dvr install. Thanks!
Definitely helped me understand swm technology...thank u
Make sure that your SWM power adapter I connect to a working power outlet and that the green light is on, if that is on call customer service and they can send out a tech usually the CSR (Customer Service Repetitive) will wave the service change
Lot's of good information and background on Directv
Maybe I missed it somewhere. Is there a video that covers that actual wiring from the SWM. I have an SL3, slimline directv dish, a splitter? In 2 outs with one out capped, double female ended adapter, 50' cable, 3' cable, power supply. A lot of videos out there show how to assemble the dish. It skips over the wiring and goes directly into tuning. The wires mysteriously attached to it. Anyone?
50' cable from SL3 to power inserter -> then to splitter -> splitter to DVR -> cap off ends of splitter not in use -> plug power inserter in first before DVR. I guess the female adapter you are talking about is a k band adapter. You don't need it. By the way this video is really old and should be taken down. It is not relevant anymore.
The genie is SWM only. It takes up 5 of the 8 tuners. Is the Genie Mini another tuner?
When you say "never connect a power inserter in a way it can feed voltage to a reciever". Is that the installer wanted the inserter plugged into it's own wall outlet intead of into a surge protector multi plug?
Can you use a signal preamp with the SWM LNB, (or would you want to with 180 feet of cable?) You mention using cable with nothing else inline.
I enjoyed the video but also looking for part 2
i have a r15 receiver, can i connect a sl3s4r2-01 antennae to receiver dual feeds
I love the $3.99 Harbor Freight multimeter! They as accurate as my Fluke 87 lll.
How do I move a box in my son's room from our bedroom? Also hook that TV we are moving to the box in our kitchen?
we have three tvs and two boxes if that help.
I found the SWM power module needs to be connected to port 1
No. the mini genie does not have its own tuner it uses one of the genies tuner.
Need comment to either stay with Dish Network or go with DIRECTV, which is better to have.
Does the SWM Lnb work with any FTA boxes, like I dunno say SonicView 8000.. lol.. or is it proprietary to only DirecTv Boxes?? Ty
SWM? What about Unicable LNBs? Isn't Unicable patented?
I love this goffy guy!
how u can no if ur lnb is not working
what does swim stand for
How do I fix my issue that DirecTV receiver signal loss during channel change? I pay for maintenance and I cannot get "Professional Service"! Please provide customer service with a solution. In my research I learned that our equipment is obsolete - equipment was installed in 2018.
Hi, what do i need to have if i want to connect four different satellites to two satellite receivers?
Because i seem to have some difficulties doing that. i have i a 4 way Diseqc(4 satellites dish to 1 receiver) and a 4 way spilter(1 satellite dish to 4 receivers) now watching two different channels of different frequency one is failing to pick even from different satellites at the same time. Please Guide me
Interesting information! I want to work with satellite dishes one day!
you wouldn't use a multiswitch. You would use a swm splitter.
we have SWM 3 room setup 2 h21 and one dvr. we have trouble with it all the time.
one of the h21 boxes freezes and looses dvr access. (it sees the dvr but wont play recordings) and now it says cant see SWM. any idea's ? besides trowing it out the window.. lol
Call and get a new one for free
Well Jerry, i'm in sales, I only want to know how to install so I know when the installers working for me are trying to bullshit me for extra $, I think I can still answer your question. He's talking about which feed in the power inserter is directed towards the ODU (satellite dish), the line out with voltage needs to run directly to that dish, not the receivers.
@meenmugrecords dont need to dishes for hd
& MoCA Compatible
gooooooooooooooooooood
dish net its the best by far
i takepleasure in
There is no comparison between Dish and DirecTV, Dish has to install two dishes on your house to have the capability of HD and local programming, they are about to lose their DVR service, and they just lost their lease on another satellite that is putting their Fox programming in jeopardy, they lose signal due to alignment issues, and their programming is for old people.I have installed both systems and SBCA Certified DirecTV is the better system hands down...
why do we have to pay so much money for satellite TV Mr. Know-It-All ?
I find this somewhat interesting.
To be honest, I find very little interest in the programming, I am more interested in how it works.
They "are" as accurate.... Oops...
is this VHS....? having fun...
i canceled directv
+Jann Goldberg You don't need to subscribe to a satellite provider in Germany. Set up a dish and you have a huge variety on free channels, including popular channels that are meant for a wide audience. You want pay-TV, you subscribe to a channel company.
@guyone69 No
Directv doesn't use orbital 110 or 119. Those are dish Network orbitals. So there's a lie right there
DirecTV has an "F" rating from the Better Business Bureau with almost 40,000 consumer complaints.
Holy fuck this shit is complicated.
If you wish to have Digital Video Recorder (DVR) service then I say stick with DirecTV. Dish Network just lost a patent infringement lawsuit against TiVo and there is a very strong possibility Dish Network will no longer be able to offer DVR service of ANY type. Some will say I lie but trust me it is true. Go ahead and Google "Dish Loses $300 Million Judgment" and see for yourself.
zzzzzzzzzzzz
don't give up your day job
Sucks
