I want to move my USALS dish motor one step to the east and west without going to the menu. I want to use telnet. What is the correct command for this?

I don't know of a simple command that can be sent through telnet to move the dish motor one step east or west. The whole thing is a bit more complicated than one command through telnet.
You will probably need to write 2 scripts, one for each direction, and store them somewhere in the receiver. Then you could run one of the scripts using telnet and have the dish move precisely one step in the direction you want.
It would be more complicated when using a receiver with multiple tuners and multiple motors, but it could be done.
Some ideas for a diseqc script are here:
