I have been unable to make this happend with one setout opcode.

Is it possible?  Is it possible to make the opcode wait until the tacho limit is
hit?

The NXT firmware does not support a single operation which has the motor run to
a specific tachometer limit and then brake.  The only way to do what you would
like to do involves several operations.  But you can wrap it all up into a
reusable block (aka subroutine).

Just yesterday I uploaded a new program to the NBC Samples page which includes a
subroutine which does what you want.  See the Motors.zip on the Samples page.
In the zip is a program called rot_test.nbc.  It has a sample subroutine and
parameterized macro which encapsulates the subroutine call.
