    If anyone can help please pm.
    Thanks

    Do you want to align a dish, or test pure optical power output down the line? For dish alignment an MDU (converts optical back to coax and IF) between the optical lnb and a conventional meter will do the same job, and there must be at least one of those in the installation that you could borrow.
    If you need to test optical power levels alone, then there is a separate meter for that as I remember.I think the Optiscan does do both though.

    Thanks excollier,
    The dish alignment is ok, the problem is I have a fault somewhere on the setup I had it working 100% and I have lost connectivity and I cannot determin where.The setup is fibo gregorian dish, GI Optical LNB powdered via the analogue coaxial cable (tested and working) 80 meter cable run to 4way compact splitter with one tail to FibreMDU virtual quad and then all four polarities to multiswitch and on to settop boxes.
    I suspect a dirty connection but I have no way of knowing where.
