Er message on box

When raising my crank up dish to height. I now get an er message on the display. Can anyone tell me the causes and fixes.

Thank you
Mike

Mike,

An Er message on your digital elevation sensor indicates improper sensor voltage. If you are using a 9V battery, make sure it is not dead. If you are using 12V, ensure that it is providing proper voltage to the sensor.

This can come up as a false positive. If your power source checks out, follow these steps to clear out the code:

-Disconnect your power source (12V or 9V battery)
-Disconnect the black, red and green wires from the board
-Go up on the roof by the antenna and disconnect the weatherproof connector and reconnect it, make certain you hear a click
-Reconnect the black, red and green wires to the board
-Reconnect the power.

If the Er message persists and you're certain you're getting correct power, the Sensor itself may have failed.
