Unicable Motorised dish

[Johev]

1- At present only 1 tuner out of the 4 is configured.
Configuration mode: simple
mode: positioner
longitude: 4.397 East
latitude: 50.833 North
tuning step size 0.360 degrees
memory positions 049
Horizontal turning speed 2.3
Vertical turning speed 1.7

I live in Brussels so this looks normal. Tried to keep it as simple as possible.

2- The pole is vertical, it is lined up with the bricks that form the house - we took extra care when mounting

3- How did we align? Well we first mount everything and try to find the 0.8W Satellite, fine tuning it so we get a reasonable reception, after that we can choose a different satellite (like the 23.5E). When it stops we fine tune it a bit more until we get a better reception, than we come back to the 0.8W and see if we still have a signal. If everything looks OK, we go to the 30W and see if we get a signal (fine tune if needed).

The problem that we did never got to solve was: when we choose 0.8w and we would check the scale on the motor, it would be exactly to 0.8W or maximum to 1W (which would still give us a signal), than we chose the 30W and the same happened (the scale on the motor would show precisely what we have asked), but when choosing the 28.5E it would pass the mark by 5 or more degrees. The motor would not stop, so we would see that it was moving east and before it stopped we would get a lock and than we would loose it because it would keep on turning for another 1 or 2 seconds.

No matter what we would did, one of them would not work. Adjusting manually the dish, or using the buttons on the bottom of the motor would work for the satellite that we were looking for, but after changing satellites it would get messed up again somehow.

What a mystery

PS: All screws are tight, so that it does not move from its position.
