    SG2100 motor control

    I have just installed my SG2100 motor.
    But damned if I can find any documentation on what rotational setting the LNB should be.

    The motor is set at 30 degree elevation and the dish 24 degrees (My Latitude = 38.5038, Longitude = -121.5154)



    So I am curious as to where the LNB should be: +20/-20


    Thanks to a past post I have figured it out:



    "As the motor turns East/West it will tilt the LNBF automatically.

    Usually the LNBF will have some angle markings on the top side of it. Keep it at zero."


    Thanks a bunch!

    Set the LNBF at zero (0). The motor rotates the LNBF as it pans left / right.

    Are there instructions online to setup the motor for the DSR200C?

    DISEqC 1.2 or USALS

    I know you guys are getting tired of my tiresome noob questions.

    Once more:

    When setting up the motor in the DSR200C settings, should I be selecting DiSEqc 1.2 or USALS? (with a SG2100 motor).
    Also, until a few mins ago I had a steady LED light..now nothing.
    I have tried resetting the motor and making sure that the connections are tight, still no go..
