Coolsat 6000 will not move dish

I have a Coolsat 6000 hooked up to a SPM 990 motorized H-H mount. I am using a Digiwave dish with a DG 668 LNB. My cable is about 130 ft. When I use the manual switch on the motor I can move the dish east and west. When I try to move the dish using the Coolsat box nothing happens. I am not using a DisEqC switch. I have a 4 x 1 switch but I didn't think I needed it with just 1 LNB. I have tried usal and 1.2. Neither work. Cable too long? It's RG 6 from Lowes. Appreciate any help.

If you are not moving you need to check your settings and make sure you hav your Long, and Lad entered in the settings. It has to be your settings.

check to make sure youve got a good connection at motor and receiver also check and make sure connectors are good.130 feet should'nt be to long some are running 200 feet on rg6.

Where is the switch in this layout? Need no switches between the motor and receiver. Is the receiver factory software or aftermarket upgrade? If aftermarket upgrade the problem could very well be the software loaded in the receiver. I am assuming your settings are correct here. Back to switch. I see no reason for a switch with a single output single lnbf. You should be receiver to motor. motor to any switches or straight to lnbf. Switch to lnbf. If the switch is between the motor and receiver this could be the cause

Coolsat can not give enough power to motor that far (I tried it) 130 feet is too long. Try to take the receiver close to the motor and move the dish using the receiver. If it moves, then long run is the problem.
