[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 844420, member: 323322"] Two ways: 1. Software: In your Receiver Menus you will be able to set East and West limits 2. Hardware: Motors have a pair of set screws underneath a label/panel on the bottom of the casing and these can be set as physical limits on movement. They are normal set quite wide. 70 deg each way, IIRC I suspect most folk never touch them! Ideally you set software limits that are narrower than the hardware limits, so you have belt and braces. But software limits alone should be ok in practice. Or none at all! Depends upon whether the motor locus is restricted by walls etc. [/QUOTE]
