Make sure that the cables go in Tuner A In and LNB in.

As you look at it from the back. The two that has one above it, it is the top one and the one on its own to the right as you look at it is the other.

Did you get this working? What lnb did you buy?

I'm really surprised this is the only thread about zGemmas and Unicable LNBs! I'm looking to do this as well

So I ignored my local sat shops advice (they tried getting me into stackers/destackers for £100s) and bought an Inverto IDLB-QUDL42-UNI2L-1PP.
Connect your existing single coax cable to the Unicable socket on the lnb (not the legacy one/s). Inside the house, connect the other end of the coax cable to the splitter that came with the lnb. Now connect the remaining two sockets on the splitter to the two tuners on the back of the Zgemma box (you'll need to make up two short patch cables).
On the Zgemma, I'm using openATV 5.3. Press menu, setup, service searching, tuner configuration. Select tuner A.
Change configuration mode to advanced. Change lof from universal lnb to 'unicable / jess'.Make sure unicable configuration mode is set to unicable lnb. Select manufacturer and type of your chosen brand and model number. Set channel to scr 1. Green to save.
For tuner B, proceed as above but set channel to scr 2. Green to save.
