Connecting two DP34 together

[bosox406]

When connecting the (two) dp34 switches togher, what ports/connections do you connect the switches togeher with. My guess is connect the ports labled "To additional Switches" to the same on the other switch?? But not working(I only used one cable). I also tried ports labled "to additional switches" to " To satellite". Do you know if I need to connect all three ports. If anyone has an install diagram that would be great!

Yes, the ones to additional switches goes into the satellite in on the next switch.

- port 1 from satellite (on left side) ------ port 1 to additional switch (on right side)
- port 2 from satellite (on left side) ------ port 2 to additional switch (on right side)
- port 3 from satellite (on left side) ------ port 3 to additional switch (on right side)

ON BOTTOM ---- port 1 to reciever ---- port 2 to rec ---- port 3 to reciever---- port 4 to rec

Hook up the left side port 1-3 from satellite to ports 1-3 on the right side to additional switch. This is called cascading. You can have a total of three switches connected together.

You do need to connect all 3 ports.
From the "to additional switches" to the "to satellite".

several things could be wrong with it, it could just be your second switch is bad. Is the receiver you are trying to push off this DP or legacy, if legacy you need a Dp adaptor in order for it to work. Try putting the cascaded 34 in place of the one you know is working. If it works there try cascading to the one just replaced. If it doesn't work get a new switch

I recommend connecting all 3. In theory you should only need to connect the first two (Some people use the DP34 for just 110/119).
