[QUOTE="a33, post: 1089303, member: 332642"] There are diy diseqc decoders. There is/are diy positioners, IIRC. I'd have to look for them. NB. There are two separate kinds of diseqc USALS/GotoX commands, I discovered. What would be your goal? Receive (modified) USALS/GotoX command (not more than ± 60 degrees) and convert to actuator pulse count (using mount/actuator inputs)? Or input all raw input data (LAT, LONG, satellite-longitude(s), and mount/actuator-inputs as per your drawing) in some kind of computer, and convert to actuator pulse count? BTW I have not checked yet that my 'modified USALS calculation' (adding forward axis tilt to site latitude angle, see [URL="https://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/usals-notebook.166471/page-2#post-4136366"]USALS Notebook[/URL] ) is 100% accurate. It will at least be close, but I haven't checked if it is indeed 100% accurate... greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
