Zinwell - HR20 cable run pairs - Does it matter sequence?

[denvermtnguy]

Have full Zinwell 6x8 multi-switch. Do cable run pairs (2 going to box A, 2 going to box B) have to be attached to the Zinwell in a particular order?

(Know one side of Zinwell must have the input from the dish, but how about the other side where the runs [output] connect?)

No.

Nope.

However, some believe that if you are using less than all eight outputs your should start on output 1 and work your way up.

Silly question. Where is the 6x8 switch?, is it internal to the dish?. There was a 6x8 on the work order when the installer came to install the 5lnb and HR20 but I don't see one anywhere just lines coming directly out of the lnb arm. I only have 4 connections at this point but plan to add more.

Since you only have 4 lines and you don't see it he probably did not install one. They normally only install a MS if you have more then 4 lines.
