[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 652795, member: 301161"] Here's the thing, the box doesn't have any idea what the motor is doing, it just knows it has sent the command. For the box to keep track of the motor it would need to be diseqc 2.x compatible. Also, on a diseqc motor hardware and software limits are both functions of the motor (with a v-box software limits are a function of the v-box). This is necessary because you don't want to drive the dish into a wall just because you change receiver. For this reason storing software limits in the receiver, rather than the motor would be impractical. In the motor control menu of the Vantage you need to go in to the positioner menu, not the USALS menu and select disable limits. This will send a signal up to the motor to clear the limits. If you can't figure it out with the Vantage use the Manhattan box to clear the limits. menu >> install >> channel search >> switch USALS to diseqc 1.2 >> press select >> erase limits >> press exit once >> switch back to USALS >> escape all menus. Hope it works. [/QUOTE]
