 Distribution", "Channel Stacking System" or "Single Cable Interface") uses
 the file "scr.conf" to specify which SCR channels use which user band frequency.
 
+If DVB-S devices need to be connected to the same satellite cable, but no
+"Satellite Channel Routing" is available, they can be set to be "bonded" in
+the Setup/LNB menu. Bonded devices can only be tuned to the same polarization
+and frequency band, which reduces the number of potentially receivable channels.

+Note that it doesn't make sense to use "Satellite Channel Routing" and
+"Device Bonding" at the same time with the same devices. If you use either
+of these methods, it is necessary that your devices are always created in the
+same sequence when the drivers are loaded. You may need to configure some
+proper "udev" rules to make sure this happens.
