What does each coaxial cable from the SWM connect to?

Just had a new floor put in.  The TV Direct TV connections, our internet and entertainment things were disconnected and moved to put the new floor in.  Now the work is done and I need to get up and running again.  I have been able to get everything working again except the Direct TV.  Need help with that.

The swim box/power inserted should have two connections. the one labeled signal to IRD is the port that connects to the receiver end, the port labeled power to SWM is the port the sends power to the dish, so the cable attached to this side will go to the wall outlet/incoming cable from the satellite.

If you have a SWM splitter then the "To SWM " port on the power inserter is connected to the red power pass through port and if you have an HR54 Genie or HS17 Genie2 then the coax from those has to be connected to that red port also.  It doesn't matter which room coax is connected to the other ports.
