Hi
Would you please be so kind to advise on D.I.Y extra view setup and equipment that might be needed. I'm jnr, I have a fair knowledge of dstv installation and extra view. I'm helping my mother with her connection, I had previously installed a twin LNB to a 2×4 multi switch then to an HD PVR decoder and a 1131 silver decoder. LNB cable from RF out from HD PVR decoder to RF in in the silver decoder as the heartbeat. I'm about to get her an explora 3, so this is what I had in mind. Explora 3 (Primary decoder) in the TV room, HD PVR (Secondery decoder 1) in the living room and 1131 (Secondery decoder 2) decoder in her bedroom all connected to a smart LNB with 4 ports to it (for possible future connection's). 2 cable's from the smart LNB to the multi switch then then one to explora 3 (primary decoder) from the switch, 2 LNB cables from the switch to the HD PVR (secondary decoder 1) & 1 LNB cable from the switch to the 1131 silver decoder (secondary decoder 2) IS THIS FEASIBLE? AND WHAT DO I THEN DO FOR THE HEARTBEAT CABLE CONNECTION? as I realised that the explora 3 doesn't have rf in/out for the heartbeat....
Please advise if this is possible and how, so sorry for the long text.
Thank you in anticipation of your response and advice.
Oh! One more question, how many decoders can I connect on 1 account for extra view in total under one subscription?
