Hi,
Can anyone please advise me of the power draw from a Jaeger 1224 motor when moving a dish? Also, are there power draw spikes when it commences moving a dish?
I was testing a fairly old 1224 with a couple of old Echostar receivers (DV7000 and LT8700) and noticed that the motor cable seemed to be getting quite warm when moving the dish East-West a good few times. Is this normal or could it be that the old Jaeger 1224 is drawing excessive power or my motor cable is not so good?
