Hi all.

I have a DiSEqc dark motor set up to a 80m dish powering a protek 9760HD IP receiver.

Everything was working fine with 12 satellites tuned in until I tried to fine tune a satellite, found the motor

wouldnt respond to the west.

On checking the manual buttons on the motor the west led light is red and east led light is green which Im assuming that there is

something wrong.

The motor does move to the west when retracking a satellite tuned in.

I have reseby t the motor by disconnecting the coax and holding both east/west buttons for 5 seconds as

instructed.

I have also reset the hardware by the receiver and managed to retune most satellites by arcing from west to

east.

The west led light still remains red and the motor will not fine tune or move to the west.

Im now assuming that there is a problem with the motor after resetting it and still having the problem

So my second question is: if I need to change the motorhas anybody had any dealings with the new horizons

NH-210 DiSEqc motor.

It has been highly recommended to me as the best motor available for the UK and europe at present.

Cheers
