[QUOTE="Borsalino, post: 586349, member: 175555"] Hello, Glad you got this far. To add a new sat to your rotor first go to Satellite Config screen. Select the NEW button (or press the yellow button on your remote). A new line is added to your list of satellites. Move the cursor onto the name of the satellite you have just added. Click OK and from the drop-down menu select Astra 1 (19.2E). Now check that the LNB number for Astra1 is the same as for HotBird. If not change it to be the same. Save these settings. Now enter the Motor Config page. You have already set the position for HotBird. To set up Astra1 19.2 East do the following: For Number in Motor enter 2 (as it is the next free place in the motor memory) For Orbital Position enter 192 (this is always the position in degrees times 10 19.2 * 10 in this case) Direction is EAST. Now prees the Blue button. You get to the 2nd page of Motor config. Set the MODE to Position. Set the Satellite to 19.2E Astra1 And set the Transponder to 10788 / 22000 / Vertical. I choose this transponder for you as it is part of the spanish digital package and should have a strong signal at your location. Move the cursor to Direction and using left and right key try to peek the signal. I think it is LEFT (sorry always get confused about it) you have to go from HotBird to get to Astra1. When you get the best signal check some of the other transponders from the drop down list to make sure you are on the right satellite. When all is done press the green button to store the position in the motor. I think that's it. Regards B [/QUOTE]
