Tuner Config for four LNBs

Hello,
Please can someone advise on the correct tuner setup for multiple satellites/LNBs
I have Zgemma H2S with the following tuner configurations
Tuner A
Simple
Desqc - A/B/C/D
Port A -13e
Port B -19e
Port C - 23.5e
Port D- 28.2e
Question is - what should be the correct setting for Tuner B and should my sat cable go into LNB or Tuner A
I have been using same setup on other old boxes Azbox and Gigablue without any issues
I am running ipab image
Thanks
 
@cactikid am sure I follow your question- I have only one satellite cable coming from outside as all the four sat LNB are joined to one incoming cable to the sat box. I watched the attached Video and in that case there are two sat feed cables but mine is 1. I can only get reception if connected to Tuner A port but nothing when in LNB in port
 
Cheers, please am trying to understand the differences between these three ports -
LNB
TUNER A
TUNER B
 
Tuner A in is Tuner A
LNB in is tuner B
Loop out isn't normally used, it's to feed another receiver if this one is off.
 
Cheers @Willo3092
Please confirm if my setup is correct as so it has been in my Gigablue box before I got the Zgemma h2s
From the dish I have four LNBS (13,19,23.5,28.2) that I'd connected and looped via one single coax cable
In the inside I have a four way satellite splitter
Coax cable goes into the sat input
1st socket connects cable to my TV freesat
2nd socket connects to Zgemma Tuner A input
From the box menu Tuner A is used as Diseqc A/B/C/D
Tuner B - not configured
Was able to scan and receive signals
Now though, if I want to make use of the Tuner B in other to watch one channel on 28.2 and record another, "should I connect another coax from splitter to 'LNB OR Tuner B" and what should be the setting for Tuner B Config
Thanks
 
I have a similar setup from the dish using four LNB holder, and using the Triax splitter inside the house
 
just because it say sat??? hopefully installers who do sat can advise more but i would be using a proper diseqc switch made for multi feeds like on the video.
 
That splitter is one input and four outputs not four in and one out.
You can't combine your 4 lnb's into one cable, you need a 4 port diseqc switch to change from one to another.
