Ok!i kinda know somewhat!how finding a satellite and then using usals to get to the other satellites on a HH motor setup!but how does it all work with using a actuator and v-box set up.

you set the reciever to diseqc 1.2. then using the vbox remote or the reciever remote, move the dish until you see a signal on the reciever. hit save location on the reciever. do this for all sats. then when you select a satellite, the reciever tells the vbox to go to a stored position.

Thanks!I kinda thought that this is what i had to do!was hoping that the actuator was smart like the HH but looks like its nothing more that a mover.I got my new V-box and hoping to start logging in C band satellites this week end.PS! I was told not to use usals on the receiver!will using by misstake mess things up on the v box?
you can use usals without any effects on the positioner. it simply ignores it.

Do not use USALS "Go to Zero" option
That will test the VBox & Arms "Limits"
forgot to mention that lak. good point. if you do need to issue the goto zero command make sure you have the vbox remote in hand ready to stop the runaway.

Thanks Lak7 and crackt! I will most likely be using the v box for moving and storing satellites and the receiver for receiving!the reason for this is that the receiver being used is the sat hawk and we all know what a pain the switch and motor is with that receiver.
