Hello all the experts,
I need help.
Here are my system configuration: Mecury II (Software ver. 1.06, FW: 1.0), DG 240 motor, 90 cm fortec star dish, Mercury II, Quad LNBF QPH-031, 22Khz disque switch. My location is 75.5W & 40.6N
I have been happy with the system for more than a year. It's been working fine untill yesterday, I tried to use the Attenna setup menu to go to a different Sat to look for new chanels, I accidentally hit the go to zero button. I don't know what else I have done. I went back to the current sat that I mostly watched, there was no signal. No signal after several attemp turn rebooting the receiver. Tried different Sat, no signal. Afraid that I might have saved the position unintenntionally, I went back to the Attena setup using USALs & Disque 1.2 to scan the entire Arc. There are few places that have very "weak signal". At 72W signal level was 6-8%, sig quality was 8%. At 123W, Signal level was 8-9% & Signal quality was 30%. I tried to move the dish to different Sat location with USALs, the motor moved back and forth few times with short distance(4-8 degree or so) and stop. With the Disque 1.2 option & disque switch turn on, I was able to move the mortor manually or automatically wit MOVE or Steo MOVE command. I feel that I may need to realign the dish. However, the system just work fine with signal level\signal quality of 55-65%/75-80% before the misshap. So I think would need your advice before next steps. Should I update the new software version 1.53 ?
I appreciate your help.
Best regards.

If you don't have your DG-240 Manual go here.
I have the same setup except I have a 22khz switch not a diseqc switch but that shouldn't make a difference. I would try reseting your motor, see manual. On my system I only use USALS. Your dish may have gotten out of sink.
