Hi all!
I hope someone can help! I have had a motorised sep up installed for over 5 years. It is a darkmotor on a 1.2 metre dish controlled by a spiderbox. I haven't used it for a couple of months but last night (whilst cutting the grass!) i noticed that the dish was turned round to the extreme east to a point where the dish was touching the support structure. It was further east than i have ever put it- must have been 42'e or further east. However when i checked the spiderbox it thought it was still at 16'e (the last sat i had it on). Our electricity was off all day on Monday so i can only assumed something is has been screwed up when it has come back on. I tried moving it to 13'e to see if that corrected the problem but all it did was turn the dish west a bit (the corresponding turn from 16'e to 13'e). I am fairly sure my support structure and the position of the motor are ok and unaltered. Can anyone advise on what is the best way to get the dish and control box synchronised onto the sats again?
Thanks Trev
