Eurobird 9

Some info please

Although I can pick up the channels I want from 9 East with the dish motor looking at 10 East, I have decided to add a new sat as it's not in my sat list menu under USALS.

I have added a new satellite called E9 @ 9 East

All I have done is the following:

INSTALLATION>
SAT/Tp EDIT>
Named a satellite E9, then switched ON Diseqc 1.3 and punched in 9.0 East>
Then GOTO> (dish moves)
The dish now moves to 9 East position and scans the only one Tp I told it to, (11823 H) 27500 when I added the satellite to the list.

Works fine, but.....

When I then go back to a pre-programmed satellite from the list in USALS , lets say 5 East, the motor doesn't turn until I switch on the Diseqc 1.3 / USALS AGAIN , then it works fine??

It only does this with the satellites I have recently added being 58 West and 9 East as they were not in the sat lists.

I have a Topfield 5000CI Rx

Any ideas?
