Does anyone know how to reset this to the factory/default settings? Mine seems to be stuck and will not pick up any satellites.

That happened to mine, no amount of resetting worked, I returned mine to the seller, magellan offered a replacement as well, but I wanted to go back to Garmin.

CL: If you buying this item used, make Sure it has an antenna as well as the adapter and manual. Without an antenna, you can't pick up The satellite signal. B Mc

i have this tv too. i just tried your method to get the tv to turn on and off and it worked. but now it's not working with dish. I can't control anything about the satelite. I'm trying to get tv2 to work so there is no box in this room. im stumped!

It's because the soft and networks which is download initially in satlink belong to china . So you need to update satlink w-s 6906 software and than connect to already set to any satellite dish and it's will start to work .

Based on the satellites position relative to your geographic location, make sure to expose the satellite antenna in the its' orbit direction. Hope this helps.

I also do not have the SAT button, and I have the PTY/CAT button. But, I use the Radio button for this option. I use the Radio button to change the input to the satellite, and then it finds the auxiliary!

I've never had a problem with it. I would check the setup instructions. Maybe it can be reset.

I apologize if this is an ***obvious*** point, but I have found that there is dramatically better performance in finding satellites if you turn on your watch and leave it on the ground/on a rock/on a post that is in relatively clear view of the sky while you stretch or get ready to run/ride. Rather than turn on the watch and put it on, I suggest to all users to try this simple trick. You will have a much better experience using the watch (mine is a 305).

you do have to have a satellite dish. hope you have better luck than i did. i got one it did not work. sent it back and they sent me another one that also did not work. i have another receiver so i know it is not my system. There support team just said they knew it worked so I just took the loss.

Late response, but it might help someone else. My 360 started losing satellites after being on for just a couple minutes. An external antenna fixed that problem nicely, only cost $11 from Amazon.

Good morning , I returned my receiver , the best way is to find a software to update for sat selection !! Or just go to sat forum . Good luck

They should come up automatically when the device searches for satellite. My works all over Europe except certain Balkan states like Bosnia that are not available.

I had the same problem on a trip to Cape Cod, MA. First weakness and in-and-out of satellite reception then nothing. Unit refuses to find the satellites. I suspect a design flaw in the receiver or the antenna connection. I'm am very unhappy with their customer service. They made me register the unit first (I didn't save the yellow piece of paper with the registration code, which is different than the serial number). I am still waiting for an RMA after a week. I did try the update, reset stuff as suggested by customer service and that did not fix it.

Hi Lorraine, To reset the system to factory settings Use buttons on the unit to reset the unit to its factory default settings. 1. Disconnect and reconnect the power cord, and then turn on the system. 2. Press [STOP], [CD] and [POWER] buttons at the same time. All user-configured settings, such as preset radio stations, timer, and the clock are deleted. Thanks. &gt;Joffrey

Happens to me too occasionally. My solution has been to do a hard reset. Power off. Power on. Reset IP address. Should get you stations. If that doesn't work I hope you'll have some other good answers that will help you.
