    Technomate Motor stopping at 20 west.

    My Technomate Motor stops at 20 west. No limits set on the motor or in the image. I did a motor reset but still the same. I can move the motor west past 20 degrees with the motor buttons. New LNB fitted so is it the motor?

    You mustn't have reset it properly. I presume you are using the buttons on the motor to reset it?

    Set the motor to 0 degrees. I removed the clear cover over the green led, used a paper clip in the reset hole. The green light flashed orange a few times and back to green.

    You may have limits in the software but you may need to use disecq instead of usals to clear them. Once that is done you can switch back to USALS.
