[QUOTE="a33, post: 1093080, member: 332642"] So, this is strange. When you give the order GotoRef, it goes to zero. When under USALS, you give the order Goto 17E (which would be at your zero position), it goes 20 degrees further (3W). Some thoughts: 1. The motor is, in fact, outlined due south at a (fictive) satellite at 17E? 2. I've seen some troubles, once, where there was suggested that some motors might have a mechanical zero, and a soft-zero. So, can you try the motor reset procedure, while at zero? And just to be sure, powerdown the receiver after that (pull the mains chord), and start it again, to check the situation again?
