Just to expand on this: The power to drive the motor is always present on the co-axial line, but the motor only moves when it receives a diseqc command down that same co-axial line from the receiver. This means you can test if there is sufficient power to drive the motor by pressing the manual override button on the motor (assuming your motor has one). If the motor does move when you press this there must be sufficient power and your problem would be software related.
