Back then was too long ago for me to be sure of much ...
Right now I'm getting then losing connection ... so it seems both ends are working but not maintaining the connection.
I've tested it real close, several feet apart, and 24' apart - same result - initial connection then lost connection.
Just tested with battery-only powering the Console, no change.
The flashing green light stops after a short while.
I looked again at Page 6 of the ISS manual & it says 10' separation is best.
I see the radio tower icon but no radio waves (I did at least once yesterday see the waves).
The ISS battery is down to 3.088 from 3.267 overnight ... suspecting the supercap i moved the ISS outside to the sunlight.
The ISS is about 7', line-of-sight through a window, from the Console.
No ISS ID at all ...
Back inside & just a few feet apart ... ISS ID but no indication of waves ...
Relocated to great room ... suspecting RF interference ... it works!
So, we have a RFI problem ...
Now to hunt the source of the 900 MHz interference ... sigh ...
Thanks!
15 months ago, just after a lightning storm that also took out other devices, your Vue system quit working. Among other things, I suggested trying to find some way to verify that the problem was the ISS, the console, or both.
I also just now noticed that you said (back then) that "receiving from" showed nothing - but the diagnostic screen you posted showed "Sta 1 (US)". I wish I had noticed that 15 months ago, rather than assuming the console was not recognizing the ISS at all, as you said.
I also suggested that the most probable failure was the ISS, which you have now replaced. I presume you are testing the combination on your kitchen table, as before. And I'm assuming your power to the console is a good battery plus AC. The console now shows receiving from #1, but then loses the connection.
"The console recognizes the ISS as #1 but after a while loses the connection & never displays any data." - so, are the diagnostic screens similar to what they showed 15 months ago?
First, try separating the two devices by a few feet. If that doesn't help, try using only battery power for the console. If all of that fails, it may be that BOTH your ISS and console got fried. But in any case, consult Ryan at that point.
