[QUOTE="didineedthis, post: 733209, member: 341916"] Hi All, been having a nightmare trying to set up usals, i am using a TM2600 motor on a TD88 dish, my pole and mount is bang on level, cheched all sides with a level and also dropped a plumb line down the center of the ploe and it confirms it is level. i think i am having the same issues as goldtar is having, i have read every tutorial i can find about installing a motorised dish using usals i am entering my details when i flash the image during set up, by the sound of it i am entering them too soon. my Latitude: 54.0965° and Longitude: -0.1848° i enter 54.1n and 0.2w for my usals details in my vu+ duo settings as i read you need to round up to the nearest whole number, is this correct ? i mounted the dish angle @ 22.4 degrees / 30 degrees minus declination angle 7.6 degrees my motor elevation angle is set on 55 degrees and is set to 0 i point everything south and then tighten up, (i got the true south direction from the dishpointer calculator,) the motor angle is set to 0 (zero ) i then swing the dish and find thaw 0.8w my satcatcher Digipro iiis confirms i am on thor 0.8w adjust for optimal signal strenght and the tighten up. then i try to send the dish to Astra 28.2 degrees but it doesnt find the correct location. can some one please tell me how to sort this out please.
