Figure 17 : Dual Receiver Connection
Dual Receiver Connection
You can connect two IRDs for your antenna as shown in the following
diagram. However, only one of the IRDs can be congured as a two
satellite receiver.
The other IRD needs to be congured as a single satellite receiver.
The two satellite receiver determines which satellite is tracked, while
the other receiver can watch any channel which is available from the
tracked satellite.
As in the single IRD option the RF cables from the antenna base plate
should be connected to ‘LNB’, ‘ANT’, or ‘Satellite In’ on the rear panel of
IRD.
