Hi
last night I wanted to reset a tm motor that thought that 25e was actually thor , so I checked the manual
( page 17 ) and looked for motor control in the menu in order to reset this rogue motor , but I could not find it anywhere in this menu at all
on checking the tm2600 motor there was a reset button in a hole so used a meat skewer in order to reset it (it flashed to amber and then back to green)
the motor behaved normally after this and I was able to tweak it until it tracked the arc correctly
my question is :-
where has motor control disappeared to ?
is in in a hidden menu somewhere ?
or has it been lost in all the changed patches ?
a lot of motors do not have this reset button , so I was lucky in this case , a lot of my older boxes do have this facility however as I have used it before
sometimes it is used to set east-west limits to stop a dish hitting a wall , so I would appreciate knowing where to access it , if possible ?
thanks
