Setup Of Enigma2 if Combining Motorised Ku Satellites with Ka Saorsat LNB ?

  • Hi All
    First Of All - My Gear is as follows :-


    The reciever is a Octagon SF8 running Enigma2 (Openvix) - Outside is a motorised 80cm dish connected to a 2 x 1 SMART Diseqc switch


    Here’s what I want to achieve :-



    On LNB1 of 2 x 1 switch I want all the Ku Band Satellites & Channels


    On LNB2 of 2 x 1 switch I want all the KA Band Saorsat Channels


    What I have done so far is that I have modified all the Ku Band satellites to be linked to LNB1 - Connected LNB1 of Swich to Ku LNB and modified in Enigma2


    See screenshot below


    Next thing i did was to connect KA LNB to LNB2 of Switch (Will also have to create custom satellites.xml to create an OFFSET position for the Saorsat LNB at approx 13.0 East - it will sit right next to the KU LNB


    My Question is - What changes / steps do i need to make to the config screen shown (or anywhere else in Enigma2) in order to get
    Saorsat set up on LNB2 port of the 2 x 1 Diseqc switch ?



    See screenshot below of working config for 9.0 East KU Band (NOT Saorsat) - how do i modify this to recieve Saorsat on LNB2 ?
