Does Sony TV work with motorized satellite dish?

I already have a satellite dish with a motor. The dish sweeps across the sky in an arc so that it can see numerous satellites.

Currently it uses a Fortec Star FS-4200 satellite receiver, but this has stopped working.

I need to buy a new TV, so, if I buy a Sony one with a satellite input will it be able to control the motor on my dish? From memory the disk motor supports DiSEqC 1.2.

Hi there

Does this answer your question:

Please take note, even though Sony TVs have a DVB-S/2 Tuners, they are NOT Freesat. Hence there is only a very basic EPG. See:
