    Important Pre-Installation Notes The notes in this section are important and vital to the successful installation of the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter. Read this entire section carefully before proceeding with the installation of the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/ Splitter. Compatibility While the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter is compatible with most DISH Network and DIRECTV systems, there are several instances in which a particular configuration may not be compatible with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/ Splitter.
  • Page 5 DISH Network Legacy Model LNBF There are three models of LNBFs which are found in DISH Network systems: • Dish Pro LNBF • Dish Pro Plus LNBF • Legacy LNBF Of these three models, the Legacy LNBF is not compatible with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter.
  • Page 6 DIRECTV Systems ORBITAL ORBITAL LOCATION LOCATIONS RECVR/TUNER The incompatibilities for DIRECTV systems are limited to two categories, namely, configurations using three LNBFs with a multiswitch which is not powered externally, and configurations using three LNBFs with a multiswitch co-located with the LNBFs at the satellite dish. The following compatibility chart shows compatible configurations, and the sections following discuss in detail certain incompatibilities.
  • Page 7 DIRECTV with Three LNBFs with External Multiswitch If your configuration uses three LNBFs, and has a multiswitch, the multiswitch must be externally powered to be compatible with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter. Externally powered means that the multiswitch is connected to an AC outlet. Examine your multiswitch to determine if it is connected to an AC outlet.
