Openbox V8s only turning 55 degrees

Hi, anyone know why an Openbox v8s would only turn a dish 55 degrees?

When I want it to turn past 55 it states "OUT OF RANGE!".

I have two Open boxes they both do the same thing, limits turned off in the receivers, and limiters fully extended on the Technomate and Darksat motors.

Is this something that is written into the Openbox bios? If so how do we edit / modify the bios? :)

Ok, I spotted this on another forum (hope it's ok to post here).

"One of the things I noticed about these boxes or the ones using the same chipsets was the USALS compatible motor control stopped at a short arc saying out of range anything above about 55 east or west of the location (that was the original limit STAB implemented btw)."

Unfortunately it looks like we can't use usals past 55degs.

I can't get diseqc 1.2 to work either.

Oh well, looks like I'm buying a couple of new receivers then.
