As I know, for Diseqc Motors this can be corrected, using adjustment screws, but is such correction available for actuator driven polar mount systems? |
Not good practice but yes.. still works on a polar mount..
. here is a quick start, set axis and offset bolt your dish up swing to 1 west lock up your mount fine tune your offset, swing east/west and
see what you get.

BombedOne is not in UK ... greyghost.
Also BombedOne.... take care of the movement of the actuator .. that it has free movement .. be careful far east if your actuator is on the west side and far west if your actuator is on the east side ... as it gets near crossing the axis point.. (don't allow it to go that far)
