Default Re: the dish wont move remotely

Hi,
Have you got your usuals set up correctly or have you got it activated? Seems strange that the dish will move with the remote, which means that the motor is OK, but will not work from the box. From what you say it seems to me that the usuals has not been activated or has been and there are no coordinates entered for it. Have a look and make sure that all is well with the usuals.

I can't see how an update would have anything to do with the dish moving, but I do not have that Technomate box, so can't be any more help to you.

Very best regards Wez
