Evening.
Having now sorted the Triax elevation problem (looks like the previous installer HAD set it incorrectly!) and got the dish set up and pointing to Thor, and getting good signals, I think I have now hit a big problem with the motor itself - it won't move at all!
Whatever I seem to be able to set the receiver to do to move the dish, and thus when the connected TV (actually a 19" PC monitor) shows "moving dish", or even when I push the E or W buttons on the mount itself, it does not move - just sits there all the time with the 2 dish LEDs flashing slowly together. From the mount manual that might indicate that the dish is at both E &W limits - and I can't see how to reset those limits on either the mount or in the receiver.
Any ideas, or is this brand new mount "f***ed"?
Thanks in advance.
John
