[QUOTE="Spiff, post: 1063706, member: 404998"] I did try using port 2 for KU and leaving C on port 4, but it made no difference. I tried turning off the motor command on one of the KU sats before setting up a fictive satellite, it turned the motor off on all the KU sats. It did not appear possible to switch off just one, but perhaps I use the wrong place to do it ? It struck me as a solution that I would probably make an error with : ) I think now that I could have used an un-used position on the switch to do a similar thing ? The manual switch if fine, but as you say I have to remember to use it. BTW I don't quite understand this [I]"This upset some of the sat positions on KU band."[/I] How can the [B]stored[/B] diseqc 1.2 positions be disturbed by [B]move[/B]-commands? Perhaps only part of the command for the wrong dish got through, I am not sure on that one, it appeared to affect only some sats ? Does the command to go to a sat, take into account the last sat you were on, I mean does it have to know where you are, or is the signal the same from any position ? So if a some move signal got through that was for C to KU it would mess things up ? I tend to think of it like uniselectors counting pulses, but it probably does not work like that.
