Re: Help with Motorized set Up

My setup is almost the same.

The easiest way is to use URSL's for your motor setup. No need to program in sat's, they are known. If you are already properly aligned with the motor, you just need to turn motor on in the setup, and set for URSL.

To calibrate alignment (assuming plumb and correct latitude/elevation angles) I recommend motoring to the URSL for a known bird (like N2), then rotate mount east/west till known bird (like N2) signal is strong. The rest in the sky arc should fall in automatically.

Once you scan in channels, the motor will automatically move to appropriate sat when you select a channel.

....LG
