STACKER SWITCH POSITION – TABLE 1

Table 1: Shows Multistacker Dip Switch settings and STB State Settings
The following tables show the vertically stacked transponders for each state throughout Australia. The multi stacker is shipped with all dip switched set to the off position which is set for the national plan. This plan has higher frequencies that are used to commission an MDU – Commercial backbone before the correct state is selected. The new state is returned within 30 to 60 seconds of selecting the required plan. Meter plans have been listed on the left from 01 to 08.
MULTISTACKER METER PLANS – TABLE 2

Table 2: Shows vertical transponder groups stacked to the new H polarity transponder Frequency
Important Note: It is crucial that the correct plan is selected for the required state, if this is not carried out the subscriber will be missing some if not all vertical channel groups. Resulting in a “No Signal” status.
The stacker has been fitted with a 5-position dip switch which is switched to match the State installed. This allows Foxtel to make better use of Transponder space in the event that a total of 32 transponders are used.

Dip Switches on the multi-stacker are switched to match up to the state/territory it is installed in.
