motorised dish problem

[gji25]

any one help with this problem... dish and motor and pole all set up correctly ? and pointing due south.(motor set to zero) using a dm500hd reciever.
have put my cordinates in the setup for usals... ok now when i tune to astra/hotbird 28.2e the dish moves east like it should do but stops on about 36 degrees east... i have to then inch the motor back 8 degrees to the west by using the manual movement button on the motor... any help with this would be appreciated .

when i set mine up i
1 pointed dish south (with motor set to zero)
2 entered lat/long
3 select thor 1w on dreambox (motor should move slightly)
4 adjusted / tweaked for peak signal
5 tighten up dish/motor , and all other sats fell into place

have set mine up exactly as above but it is still over shooting the satellite by about 8 degrees... reads about 36 on the motor rather than 28

id do a reset on the motor try that

Is the pole 100% plumb ? Double check it, even if it's slightly out of plumb it will miss the arc and some sats.

still overshoots ?

Just wondering mate. You did point it to true south and not magnetic south?
