What image have you got on it m8 ? I flashed a m8s 600 last week with pli jade and it wouldnt turn my motor. I flashed my 500 with Pli jade and that woudn't turn it neither. I thought it must be something wrong with the motor so reflashed both boxes with Nabilosat and they both turned the motor. Strange or what ? Anyone, didn't mess around with them for too long. Why don't you try a couple of different images. Make sure you put your Long and Lat settings in the box m8.

Press the GREEN button to store that location
After you have stored this position got back to satfind and change the satellite to the next one you want to view, when you have a lock on this satellite exit again and proceed with the satellite positioner again .
You will need to perform this for each position you intend to set up in line with what you did in stage 1
