Conflict between tuners

[esc1996fan]

Hi Guys,


This is my first post. I thought that maybe you could help me to answer one of my biggest doubts about VU+ DUO2.

SITUATION: 3 dishes connected to VU+ DUO2

- TUNER A - MOTOR (at the moment pointing at 28.2e)
- TUNER B - STATIC (always poiting at 13e)
- TUNER C - STATIC (always poiting at 13e)

If I set a timer for BBC WORLD NEWS at 13e, I would hope VU+ DUO2 to use Tuner B or C to record that channel because they are already pointing at 13e.

Do you know which tuner is being used in this situation? B or C? or it could be A even not pointing at 13e?


Any information would be very useful!

If you have prioritized the fixed tuners pointed to 13E the box should use them and if there are not B/C tuners avaiable uses the A.
This is my theory ... I've only a USALS rotor so I've no direct experience.

I have a fixed dish pointing at 28e on tuner B and a motorised dish on the other tuner A
The timer for 28e always uses B unless its busy ,motorised dish running via a V box . This applies to my Vu Duo and Duo2

Pressing the OK button puts the info bar up and that states which tuner is in use.
