Dreambox 800 with 8 LNB's .. Help Please !!

[Moonor]

Guys, I need help with this installation :

Dreambox 800 HD
Spaun SUR 211 F Uncommitted switch with LNB1 and LNB2 inputs ( Each input has 1 Diseqc connected with 4 LNB's. i.e 8 LNB's in total are connected to the Switch thru 2 Diseqc's)

Does anybody know how to do the correct installation in the Dreambox Menu .. ?? Also the switch has a button with 3 options, uncommitted, tonebourst or something else .. what is the correct position .. ?

I have tried many attempts to play in the advanced settings page for the satellite installation but not all satellites came thru although I tested it before on an old Dreambox Gemini and all worked ... Even the ones that came thru take a lot of time and need to stay on a channel for a while to start seeing the picture ..

Thank you so much ...

Hi there, Moonor.

I found your request in this forum, but it's already 'dated'.

Wonder if you ever got your Dreambox working with 8 LNB's.

I'm also 'in the process', but no time to finish it off!!!

Check out my setup here:

Found also some other info here:
Up to 8 lnb's on your dreambox - in pictures
(that thread is closed unfortunately)

Let me know if how you are going with your eight LNB dreamproject.

Really want to be in touch with you.
