[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 859418, member: 323322"] Not daft at all! There is one coax cable from Rx to Motor and then one from Motor to LNB. The Motor draws its operating current from the Rx (Typically 400mA max). When a V target is selected, Motor supply voltage is around 13 volts (ie as demanded via DiSEqC for the LNB switching). When an H target is selected, Motor supply voltage increase to 18 volts (again, primarily due to the call from the LNB for a voltage dependent Polarity switching signal) Ergo, the Motor pans faster when an H target is selected (A trick that can be made use of!) In addition to the DiSEqC commands for LNB Polarity and Band Switching, you can also set two Motor positioning modes, one which lets you find and store individual Satellite positions and another (USALS) whereby you simply set up one Satellite and an algorithm sorts out the rest automatically, based upon your own Lat/Long.
