direct tv dish/switch question

[dl76]

hello sat guys, got a question. I am setting up a second slimline dish at a summer home. Have a IRD model H24-700 , 21 volt power supply, SL3S4NR3-01(LNB). Do i need the 4 way splitter (MSPLIT4R0-01) for this to work, or can i just run the ird to power inserter to dish (lnb)? Or do i have to run this to ird to power inserter then to switch then to lnb.

If you are only using 1 recvr, you don't need the splitter, but you Do need the Power Insertor.

Run line from LNB to PI to recvr, make sure you get the correct connections on the PI.

Hiya guys, me again, got another question, I just purchased a HR21-700 that was owned on ebay. Anyways using the same dish as stated above. What kind of splitter do i need to run both the HR21-700 and H24-700 together on this SL3S4NR3-01(LNB). And also how would it be wired up.

The HR21-700 came with two B Band converters also, not sure if i need these also.

Thanks for any replies.

You have to use a Directv approved swm splitter. They come in several configurations. If it has more ports than you need, make sure to cap the open ones with a 75 ohm terminator. If the power inserter is past the splitter, it has to go on the power passing port of the splitter, marked with a red line. Here's one: http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.as...ase&utm_medium=organic&utm_source=google_base
