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
LNBF
Of these three models, the Legacy LNBF is not compatible with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter. To determine
which model of LNBF your DISH Network system is using, examine the satellite dish or the LNBF located on the satellite
dish. If the designation “Dish Pro” or “Dish Pro Plus”, or the corresponding logo (shown to the right), are not found on the satellite dish or on the LNBF, then your DISH
Network system is using a Legacy LNBF which will not work with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter.
DISH Network Legacy Model Receivers/Tuners
The SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter is compatible with the following DISH Network receivers/tuners:
•Dish Pro Single Receiver/Tuner
•Dish Pro Plus Dual Receiver/Tuner
•Legacy Receiver/Tuner with a DishPro Adapter
If your configuration is using a Legacy receiver/tuner, check to be sure it has a DishPro adapter connected to it. If it does, then the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter will work with the Legacy receiver/tuner, provided that the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner and/or Splitter is not
installed between the Legacy receiver/tuner and the DishPro adapter.
A Legacy receiver/tuner which does not have a DishPro adapter connected is not compatible with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter. However, if you have a configuration which uses multiple receivers/
tuners, remember that the ‘Dish Pro Single’ and ‘Dish
Pro Plus Dual’ receivers/tuners are compatible. Install the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter in the leg of your configuration with a compatible receiver/tuner, and not in the leg with the incompatible Legacy receiver/tuner.
DISH Network Systems Receiving Three Orbital Locations
DISH Network systems which receive three orbital locations are not compatible with the SIRIUS/DBS Signal Combiner/Splitter. Systems which receive one or two orbital locations are compatible, as well as systems receiving four orbital locations which use a “DP Plus 44” multiswitch.
