[QUOTE="a33, post: 1033540, member: 332642"] That depends on where the motor goes after you give the command 'goto-0'. When it goes to exactly the zero position, then NO. When it stops at another position, then 'manually' move it to the zero postion, and THEN reset the motor. (The reset allways stores the 'current' position as 'zero position'.) I wouldn't know if or why you should need a receiver factory reset? Unless you want to clean up its stored databases or so? The motor elevation you had already correctly set, according to your photo. You can use the values I mentioned earlier; I fed the calculator with your exact location data. The aligning of motor and dish, and aiming at exact south, is now a very important step (as also mentioned in some earlier posts). Then do the usals procedure as mentioned above, and find the satellite signal by a) turning the whole setup aroud the pole with little moves, to find the correct direction, and b) changing the dish elevation with little moves, to find the correct satellite beam elevation. You first have to succeed with these steps, before you can go further. greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
