I have a 90cm dish already installed on a side wall accessible from a flat roof. The dish was set up without USALS and I want to get it working properly with USALS and my new VU+ box.

NW London.

Is the motor USALs compatible ?

I assume it is compatible, when I set my box to USALS it does move the motor to the satellite.

If it moves the dish to the satellite using USALS, what's the problem?

It was not aligned correctly first time and I have been manually looking for satellites as the installed did.

But can you get the required satellites by manual tuning?

You can adjust the positions by putting in different Longitude numbers and then referencing to zero (unless the motor requires a manual reset)
