Ok so I've stumbled across this interesting way to setup a SWM ODU system.
I connect the LNB to the red output power pass on the splitter. Then I connect the SWM input to the power inserter and the IRD output, from the PI, to one of the receivers. I get good signal for three receivers out of four initially. The fourth receiver receives 99-100%, odd only, signal strength. Eventually after some tinkering with the splitter and moving the fourth room to other available outputs, I get the correct signal and both odd and even transponders kick in.
I'm really baffled by this.. Would anyone care to explain what's going on? This seems like a good way to run less line in certain scenarios, but it doesn't follow the proper setup.
Also, are cable splitters compatible with SWM?
And lastly, can I use a diplexer with a SWM receiver and a cable modem?
