Whichever system I buy from you , how do I buy a DiSEqC 1.2 or 1.3? I
couldn't find those specific ones on your website? I found others like 4
switches etc.

disqec 1.2 and 1.3 is a protocol in the receiver for moving the dish motor not a switch.

The Diseqc protocol 1.0 ( lowest, simplest level) is sufficient for using a 4x1 Diseqc Switch. I would venture to say that any Diseqc switch supports this entry level protocol. Otherwise, how COULD it be called a "Diseqc" switch?

DiSEqC 1.2 and 1.3 (aka USALS, GOTO X) are protocols for controllling a motor. It is differernt than the DiSEqC switch 1.0,1.1,2.0,2.2 protocols

How do I know that my ViewSat Platinum has that disqec 1.0 or 1.2 or 1.3 Protocol? And do all recievers have all 3?

Thankyou

most all receivers has the capability to operate a disqec switch (1.0) and if the receiver is capable of moving a dish it will have either 1.2 or 1.3 or both. yes receivers has the capabilities of doing all 3 my fortec ultra and mercury will do all the satworks will only do 1.0 won't move a dish but will control a disqec switch. hopes this helps.
