My satellite equipment consists of dish with 4 Quattro-LNB's connected to a 17/8 Diseqc 1.0 Multiswitch.
Although this setup is quite common, AutoDiseqc fails to detect the satellites correctly on my Xtrend ET9200.

I wonder if an expert, familiar with the source code, could help?

That has nothing to do with code.

 

Whan is needed is a list, with per satellite position a transponder which can be locked that is absolutely unique amongst all sats in the list  (to avoid false hits.

 

You can find the current list here: https://github.com/O...toDiseqc.py#L25

 

p.s. not common enough, I've got two of those switches here, one new-in-box. Nobody's interested ;).


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Many answers to your question can be found in our new and improved wiki.

You've posted a link to SatFinder. I was talking about AutoDiseqc.

 

I know that unique frequencies have to be scanned. That is the case, so no problem with that.

Once, about 10 years ago, I noticed on some receivers that they not tune eDVBFrontendParametersSatellite.System_DVB_S2 or some eDVBFrontendParametersSatellite.FEC.

Or problem in 17/8 Diseqc 1.0 Multiswitch.

Could we clarify some basics first? Why is there an option in AutoDiseqc "Set voltage and 22kHz"? It is not needed in a simple Diseqc environment.

Sometimes it is needed in the simple mode… but maybe not when all is in the autodiseqc mode.

Simple mode is by definition without cascaded switches, right?
