Hello,
I am looking for an installation manual for a ROTOR TWINSAT 2 Satellites.
I have the device but I cannot connect it to the electrical network.
Thank you to everyone who has the kindness to help me.
Have a good day.

    Hello,
    In principle, this rotor is powered and controlled by the terminal (demodulator)

    Hello ANDY 31200
    Thank you for your response, it is very kind of you to have replied to me.
    I would just like to have some clarifications about this device.
    You think that this rotor is controlled by the demodulator, but how is the electrical connection made if the rotor has to turn towards the 2 satellites?
    Another thing, when we open the cover, there are two LNB sockets (I don't know if that's the exact word) to connect TV cables that must probably come from the 2 satellites.
    Could you please provide some clarifications?
    Thank you very warmly and I wish you a good evening.
    Sincerely.

    You're welcome,
    The power supply and control are done via the coaxial cable.
    The two female F connectors: one to the demodulator and one to the LNB
    Have a nice evening as well

    But you're welcome, and have you checked that your terminal can control a motor?
    Which satellites do you want to point at?

    Hello ANDY
    Thank you for your response and your availability.
    Regarding the manual, I clicked on the link but there’s nothing more. For your information, on IBALDI, you're asked to provide an email address and then you’re required to pay a bill to be able to download the TWINSAT user manual.
    As for the terminal, I must admit that I haven't had the opportunity to check it.
    I will do it soon and let you know.
    Once again, thank you and I wish you a good evening.
    Best regards.

    But of course, which satellites do you want to point at?

    I would like to point to Nilesat and ASTRA 19.2 if possible.
    So I have 3 receivers
    the digiclass
    the ASTRA
    and the Géant.
    Which one do you think among these three can operate the twinsat?
    Thank you for your response Mr. ANDY
    Thank you again and I wish you a good day.

    I don't know and you'd better use two parabolas + a diseqc switch and I regret having to stop here because the forum rules prohibit any help with hacking

    Thank you very much Mr. ANDY, you have already done a lot, believe me, I didn't even know that this rotor only worked with the coaxial cable.
    Once again, thank you and have a good evening.
