Ok, got the right lat/lon entered. S110.0W puts it at about 0 which would be right since it should be -.3 (too close to tell with that pointer. S125W puts it at about 18-20 degrees west of south. S148.0W put it at about 45-48 west. Set use DiSEqC yes in LNB setup and the dish stops responding to the goto commands. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Bergwinkl" <Bergwinkl.Thomas@xxxxxxxxx> To: "'VDR Mailing List'" <vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 11:10 PM Subject: RE: rotor plugin and USALs Timothy D.

The plugin supports USUALS. First you have to enter your latitude and longitude in the setup menu of the plugin. When your latitude e.g is 32.2? North have to type in 3 2 2 and with left and right you can toggle between N and S. There is also the option 'Use GotoX on channel switch'. When say 'yes', the diseqc commands will be sent after a channel switch to another satellite. To move your dish manually with GotoX you have to select a sat location and then press the OK button.
