[QUOTE="d_lamer2003, post: 101530, member: 191079"] To tell u the truth I do not know the model name of the motor, because I did not install it, but bought it from a shop, and the shop owner installed it for me. Though only a green bulb is present, and near it is a reset hole (those are on the right), on the left there is a button, then when pressed it makes the dish (motor) move eithier left or right. The reset button what it is used for? After I posted my second post, I succeded (don`t know how), to get the dish to point to Hotbird, but now, anything I do I am not succeding in making the dish move by 1mm! :(. I uninstalled the skystar 1 drivers, I remove the wire from the card, I rebooted the pc, I switched off the pc, etc.(In one simple sentence I did everything possible!). And still no success. I have another problem is that the program which came with the skystar "SkyStar 1 CI TV" I use it only to move the dish, because when i try to view a channel, even though when I scan for the channels he actually finds channels, when I go to view a particular channel I recieve the error "Settings Error!Fail to play the program!", but then when I use myTheatre, I can watch channels but not move the dish, this combination did not bother me, but now, I am bothered, because I cannot move the dish in any way :(. Is there a way, (withouth using an oscilloscope), that I can check that the pc sat card, is really sending a signal to the motor. I repeat up till yesterday at night, it all worked correctly, when this morning I went to view some tv, I could only watch TV channels from 1 sat :(. (P.S. Sorry for the long post) [/QUOTE]
