Im trying invain to set up my new vuduo with my WaveFrontier Toroidalantenn.
I got a 12 lnb setup.1uncommitted switch and 3 committed.Works a charm on my relook 400.

Going into lnb set up.Advanced option.Lnb1 is 28e commited 1 uncommited 1.
Lnb 2 23e comitted 2 uncopmmitted1.................Lnb 5 13e committed 1 uncommited 2 ......Lnb8 5e commited 4 uncommitted 2 etc.
This should work but doesnt.
The funny thing is that if I search Lnb8=5e I get chanels from 13e.
Anyone got a bright idea?

As I found the solution I answer my own question.
Advancedconfig
LNB 1
Prio-auto
LOF-universal
Current-Polarisation
Increased current-no
Tone-Band
Diseqc-1,1
Toneburst-none
Committed Diseqc-AA
Fast Diseqc-yes
Repete Sequence-yes
Uncommitted Diseqc-1
Diseqc repete-1

For LNB2 committed diseqc =AB Uncommitted =1
LNB3 =BA =1
LNB4 =BB =1
LNB5 =AA =2
etc...................
must say the manual is a bit lame.The only mention of AA AB BA BB is setting upp dual LNBs.

Slightly off topic..... Whats the WaveFrontier like ?

I've been thinking about getting one for a bit now.

Abit difficult to install but when its up and running its THE BEST.

Hi
I have just bought my VU+Duo reciever and i'm going to put PLI image in it. I'm also using a WaveFrontier T90 with 10 lnbs and a Diseqc switch ( 10/1 ) and this is the connection today with Vantage 7100S.
Input #=diseqcswitch input number, DiSEqC Port 1 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 1 that's in the Vantage satellite menu where i have to use both Diseqc Port and Diseqc 1.1 to get it to work.
Input 1 = DiSEqC Port 1 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 1
Input 2 = DiSEqC Port 1 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 2
Input 3 = DiSEqC Port 1 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 3
Input 4 = DiSEqC Port 1 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 4
Input 5 = DiSEqC Port 2 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 1
Input 6 = DiSEqC Port 2 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 2
Input 7 = DiSEqC Port 2 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 3
Input 8 = DiSEqC Port 2 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 4
Input 9 = DiSEqC Port 3 & DiSEqC 1.1 = 1
Input 10 = DiSEqc Port 3 & DiSEqC 1.1 =2

Is this the way to do it also in VU+DUO reciever or can someone tell me how to do it.

Best ?

Well it depends also what satellites you can reach from your position.
And what you want to see.

Think about situation that you have open visibility e.g 43w-80e.
Then you need more toroidals and quite a lot of lnb:s, switches... :)
And the size is not enough for weaker satellites....

But have to say that its very handy..do not have to wait when motor is turning,more than one receiver..
But it has its own limitations: Range in arc,size.

@Nordicbear.
If I understood things right(I spent 3 hours trying diffrent configs and serching the net last night)you should do as i have descriebed.

lnb1=AA 1
Lnb2 AB 1.....
Lnb5 AA 2 .......
Lnb 9 AA 3 and so on
