sg2100 and usals

[updatelee]

dms just sent me an email telling me the sg2100 now has usals support. my sg2100 is almost two years old, its got a dms sticker on it, and it supports usals. this a marketing error thinking this is new ?

I bought mine last summer and it has USALS. Hmm..

I had been under the impression that DiSEqC 1.3 = USALS.

I got a sg2100 last year it has USALS support. Seems like a goof email.

I suspect that since USALS is registered to STAB, that perhaps they have made the effort to license the name. My SG2100 documentation talks about "go to x" , which I think is the equivalent of USALS, but perhaps was confusing some people.
:?

Its the reciever that supports USALS (1.3) not the motor

must have been classic marketing guys finding a new keyword they never heard about and thinking its new technology in the equipment, hehe.

DisEqC 1.3 & GOTO "x" are equivalent to USALS

It's no error. Your older motor works because of USALS support from the receiver. The older SG2100 doesn't have USALS built into the motor. The new one does. How do you tell the difference? The older SG2100 has one button for control. The new one has two buttons.

so whats the difference between having the ird do usals and the motor doing it ?
