Trouble setting up tuner config on vu+ Ultimo 4 k

[thegoatlucas]

Hi guys I'm having trouble setting up my tuners so I canget the best out of them.

This is what I have on my vu+ Ultimo 4 k
1 X Cable DVB-C FBC Tuner INCLUDED. ( Not connected TUNER A)
1 X Twin Satellite DVB-S/S2 FBC Tuner connected to TUNER B
1 X Twin Satellite DVB-S/S2 Tuner connected to TUNER C

I have a quad lnb with 2 sat feeds coming into house from it
Does anyone have a similar setup how do I go about placing the cables to the tuner at back so I can get the most out of the amount of recording and viewing I can do at once.
Thanks

You would connect all 4 satellite cables, so 2x into FBC-Sat & both into DVB-S

Thanks Andy but I only have a total of 2 cables.

Do you have two single cables, so total of two connections.

Or do you have two shotgun cables (two cables stuck together), so total of four connections?

Ye guys it looks like it is 2 lines (cables) glued together and then towards the end they separate have attached a picture

That is only TWO feeds. Each FBC satellite tuner module has TWO INPUTS. Either connect both to the inputs on Tuner slot B and disabled tuners in Slot C or you need to add two more feeds.

To get full use of the FBC tuners swap the LNB to a Unicable LNB: https://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk...t-unicable-lnb

You can then use a existing coax cable feed and a splitter.

Thanks for the advice man so if I have one cable on top of tuner b and one on bottom part of tuner b I will be using it to the best of its ability for now?

Don't forget, "tuner slot" and the "tuner" are separate things.

Slot A
Your tuners A-H are the Cable, set them all as disabled for now.

Slot B
Tuners I and J are the physical connections of the satellite FBC module. You should set these as simple, single, 28.2.
Tuners K-P are the leaf tuners of the satellite FBC module. These should be left/set as FBC automatic.

Slot C
Tuners Q & R are the legacy satellite tuner. As you have nothing connected to them, leave them as disabled.

As above, best to get the Unicable LNB and splitter
