My Satellite Setup
TBS 6925
1.8m Precision + PLL Bullseye, motorised but probably siezed now.
2 x Sky Zone 2 for 28/19/13°E

I installed one of these on Saturday, I'm not too concerned as it seems to be performing very well but I couldn't seem to alter this. The photo shows the motor after numerous reset attempts and drive to 0 commands. Everything I tried didn't seem to make any difference, the motor (according to the casting) resets to around 2°E. I manually drove it so the mark was over the 0 then lined the dish up accordingly so can only assume it's a dodgy cast but has anyone else come across this?

Does "go to 0" mean go to ZERO or does it mean go to zero relative to your coordinates?
 
It's the same thing were we are :)
 
Mine was the same on the Supreme LED infact i have had a few with the same problem they are slightly off Zero, No matter how many times i tried a reset with goto zero or a reset with the buttons on the motor it always seemed to be off, It does however track the ARC correctly as i compared it to a TM2600 and there was no difference.
