Important Notice
Level "2.3" is NOT a DiSEqC™ level that has been standardised by Eutelsat. Other DiSEqC™ products may not work correctly with products using this protocol. Please contact the manufacturer of any equipment carrying the non-standard and unapproved DiSEqC 2.3 logo for clarification.
Eutelsat is now considering the best way to incorporate this new protocol (if possible) in to the DiSEqC™ standard to ensure compatibility with all other DiSEqC™ products on the markets.
