Hi I am new to this, I am trying to use my Dish 322 in my RV. I got a dish 500 LBN and am trying to use it in my RV. The RV has one connection to the outside and the dish has 2. How do I hook this up? Thanks!

You need a Dish Pro Plus Twin LNB on your dish 500. The Twin allows use of a single line to the receiver and Dish Pro Plus allows use of the separator on the back of the 322.
Ok, I have the DP Plus LBN but there are 2 cables comming out of it. Do I use a splitter to hook on to the RV Connection?
Hello,
Just use one line from the lnb. Go straight to the receiver. Most RV's have a splitter inline which won't conduct the electricity needed for the lnb.

Run one cable into the RV by way of the Park/Cable input. Disconnect the cable from the cable side of the Cable/Antenna switch in the RV. Using a Separator connect that cable to the Sat1 and Sat2 inputs. You can then run independent TVs with a connection through the video controller. I hooked up TV2 to the Aux side of the Video Controller and switched to Aux to view independent programing on rear TV.
No, you only need the line coax from the lnb, if you are using a dual tuner receiver, you use a DPP Separator to feed both inputs on the receiver. Note: the Separator does look like a splitter, it is not.
