[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 876562, member: 325666"] So I'll try to explain why such a function is important .. An empty 5302 and a new dish Vbox setup (also empty) Your visible arc say 50 west to 50 east .. You start from 50 west setting postions and scanning channels as you go from 50 west ..allowing the TM to store sat positions in the Vbox. the TM will _hopefully_ increment and store each position in a linear mode. Your next sat being at postion 2 ..then 3 etc By the time you reach your easten limit ..say 50 positions are stored and all your channels .. It took you 24 hours but it's finally done. Next you hear of a new sat being launched to arrive in the middle of your visible arc. It arrives and and you want to include it ? If you COULD access and change sat postion data in the TM ..you could just add another position at 51 in the TM.. store this position MANUALLY in the Vbox ok so it's not linear ..but at least you have it.. Alternatively ..you spend another 24 hours rescanning everything from 50 west to 50 east ..adding the new sat position as you go .. Totally bloody stupid is the only way I can put it. Full control IS paramount. This isn't a problem if you use usals motors ..but Diseqc 1.2/Vbox it is rgds VS [/QUOTE]
