Dark Motor Issue

[telewestTUM]

My 1m dish etc was working fine until late last night it just stopped moving!

ive tried hardware reset but it still wont move via the dm800s clone anymore. Also when i goto the motor and hold down the east or west buttons it now doesnt move continuously just via 1 press, 1 step so it takes a lot of presses to move 1 degree.

Anyone know what the issue might be? if i move the motor manually it works fine and im also getting a signal just fine?

Hi M8

Have you tried moving it with another reciever ?

I only have the one receiver other than a dm600c

I might try a different image. It could be a voltage issue
I suppose.

Is way to change the settings on dm800 to decrease and increase voltages?

Increase !

You say the motor just stopped moving. Had you been playing
about earlier.

it must of been an issue with my image i was using as it is working fine now after i downloaded another one. Strangley though 16e isnt going to 16e its more like 17e and needs manual adjustment once the channel is selected.

Is anyway of setting the location for a satellite?

manually adjust the motor till you get the best signal on 16 E and then save the position on your motor.
