minisatip configuration in satip-axe firmware
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
The idl4k boxes have integrated universal switch matrix for all four inputs.
|
|
It allows very complex usage. This document tries to explain some special
|
|
configurations. For simplicity, the input are numbered as 0-3 here, but
|
|
the physical F-type connector on the box have numering 1-4.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Standard DiseqC timing and setup
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
### Example: '-q "*:5-15-0-5-5-0" -d "*:*1-0"'
|
|
|
|
|
|
Power
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Since build 11, you may control the power on box inputs. If you
|
|
use '-P 1' option, the inputs will be powered down when no active
|
|
client is using the minisatip. This behaviour is similar to minisatip
|
|
implementation in build 10 or bellow.
|
|
|
|
If you keep the standard behaviour '-P 0', the inputs are powered down
|
|
when they are not used by any client. There is a delay of 30 seconds
|
|
before the power is turned off. Depending on the coaxial wiring and
|
|
used reception components, the independent input power down might
|
|
affect the signal quality during the power down phase.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Linked inputs
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
### Example1: '-L 0:2,1:3'
|
|
### Example2: '-L 0:1,0:2,0:3'
|
|
|
|
The first number means master tuner and the second slave tuner.
|
|
The tuners in same group (master can have multiple slaves) can
|
|
use only same combination of source (src=X), band (low/high)
|
|
and polarization at a time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quattro LNB
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The quattro LNB can be configured using -Q option for minisatip. All
|
|
diseqc (AA), voltage and tone setup is executed, so you may eventually
|
|
connect a multiswitch or quad LNB (it makes sense only with
|
|
the -Z option).
|
|
|
|
The -Z option can eventually reduce the used input to 2 filtering the
|
|
loband (inputs 2,3) or hiband (inputs 0,1) only. For example, 23.5E
|
|
satellite positions have useable transponders only in hiband. So, it is
|
|
enough to connect coaxial cable only to input 0 and 1 and use other
|
|
two inputs for other LNBs (standard way). Note that SAT>IP source number 1
|
|
is always handled for the inputs 0 and 1 (to use full 4 tuners for the
|
|
loband/hiband inputs).
|
|
|
|
### Example: '-Q -Z 1'
|
|
|
|
box input 0 ---- multiswitch with diseqc AA = 23.5E
|
|
box input 1 ---- multiswitch with diseqc AA = 23.5E
|
|
box input 2 ----+---- diseqc AA = 28.2E (SAT>IP src=2)
|
|
+---- diseqc AB = 19.2E (SAT>IP src=3)
|
|
+---- diseqc BA = 16E (SAT>IP src=4)
|
|
\---- diseqc BB = 13E (SAT<IP src=5)
|
|
box input 3 ----+---- diseqc AA = 0.8W (SAT>IP src=2)
|
|
\---- diseqc AB = 9E (SAT>IP src=3)
|
|
|
|
As you can see, all tuners have src=1 (23.5E), tuner 2 has four
|
|
additional diseqc sources and tuner 3 two additional sources.
|
|
|
|
Note: This requires build 11 or above of the satip-axe firmware.

Unicable/Unicable II
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Example 1: '-u 0:1-1420,1:0-1210,2:2-1680,3:3-2040'
|
|
|
|
0:1-1420
|
|
|
|
- 0 = minisatip/box input (0-3)
|
|
- 1 = unicable slot number (refer to your unicable equipment)
|
|
- 1420 = transpoder frequency for the tuner
|
|
|
|
Note: 0:1-*1420 means that only 13V (voltage) will be used.
|
|
|
|
Note2: If you don't specify the adapter as unicable, it can be used to
|
|
control the standard LNBs/diseqc equipment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Multiple unicable groups
|
|
|
|
You may connect multiple unicable LNBs through multiple coaxial
|
|
wires to the box. In this case, it is necessary to tell which tuners
|
|
will use which physical input. In this case '-X T1,T2,T3,T4' option
|
|
should be used wheren you can define the parent inputs for all four
|
|
tuners like: '-X 0,0,2,2' where two unicable groups are connected
|
|
to minisatip input 0 and 2.
|
|
|
|
box input 0 ---+--- wire 1 (unicable group 1)
|
|
box input 1 ---/
|
|
|
|
box input 2 ---+--- wire 2 (unicable group 2)
|
|
box input 3 ---/
|
|
|
|
Note: This requires build 11 or above of the satip-axe firmware.
