5402 east/west limits

[beany1]

have just successfully set up a motorised system,using tm5402 in conjunction with a tm2600 motor,using usals.this was achieved because of the wonderful help i received from this forums.at first glance,i thought i had enough movement to send dish as far as 30 degrees west of true south.but it seems i can only go 20 degrees .beyond this limit,dish would career into house.looking at the tm2600 manual,it talks about set east/west limits under motor control.i,m confused as to how the limits are applied.east limits are no problem for me.and i have no need for anything beyond 20w.what does worry me is the kids and grand kids coming round and selecting a sat like hispasat and perhaps knocking the house down lol.have hit right and left on set west limit.all i see are arrows.have pressed ok on this also.but have no option to set limit.bearing in mind i am a complete beginner,any assistance will be appreciated.

limits are set in diseqc not usals

ah.not made clear in manual,even tho the options are there under usals system setup.i fear i may have to take dish down and adjust the sliding limiters on motor itself.thanks again echelon.

[echelon]

I dont have your box but seen the limiters in diseqc a few times, or sliders on the motors

[beany1]

yes.deffo sliders there for east/west limitations.oh well,back to the drawing board.east no probs.west is the worry for me.cheers.

Don't store any satellites past 20.w, that way the kids won't be able to select 'em.
