    Stab motor not driving to correct satellite degrees

    Sorry

    I am a newbie


    I have a vu + dual receiver with a stab motor rotor sat hh100.


    The vu+ is preconfigured for me.


    I have set the dish up but when the receiver asks the motor to go to say astra 28.2 the position of the motor goes to about 34.


    Not aligning up with anything.


    Can anyone please help


    Thanks

    Well loosen the nuts on the dish and line it up with what the receiver position wants, or give the motor fixed positions.
    Or you can start again and set up the motor and send it to 0.8 degree South and and loosen the nuts and manually adjust the dish at that position.
    You set up the motor first and adjust the dish to suit.

    he needs to adjust to the closer sat on his position.Not always 0.8 degrees.In my case it is 5 E . He is 6 degrees off so probably they configured the wrong latitude and longitude.
