My Oyster Vision 2 (up-dated by previous owner prior to me purchasing the motorhome 5 months ago) will not find Astra 2, the dish goes up, spins, alters the elevation, but finds nothing.
I haven't used the system since 23rd November prior to this last w/e. Previously Astra 2 has been found with no apparent problems.
I know it's rained a lot lately, but would that affect the lnb ?
I'd like to see if I could locate Astra 1, to see if the lnb was ok. Looking on the web I've found some instructions on how to operate the system...but trying to work my way through the menu structure on the control box is not easy, I thought I'd changed the satellite to be searched for but it keeps looking for astra 2.
I found some info on a previous thread re: software update instructions, but I'm not sure of some of the terms being used...reference is made to pressing the menu button on the 'remote'...is that the 'operating control device' that is hard wired to the control unit ?
This small box has the following icons on it...sat dish, back arrow, forward arrow, and a tick.
If it's not the same box, then I've not got the remote.
And then the thread says update via astra 1....and I don't know how to get astra 1
The Oyster has been great when working, but if anything goes wrong it's not as easy to fettle as my previous set-up...sat dish clamped on a pole then clamped to the roof access ladders.
Hope someone can help me.
regards
Allen
