Hi
My DT80 series 2 just stopped responding
The sample light, disk and power lights are on but no display
It was a brand new logger (2009?) . I had updated to latest firmware.
It was working fine for about 3 weeks
Anyone got any ideas ? A hard reset has not fixed it
thanks

Hi litters95,

You are welcome, you can always test the logger using manual bootstrap entry. If the logger responds well (display is there) then it is likely the firmware issue. There are two possible causes, either part of the firmware in the EEPROM which you need to return the logger for service. Or part of the firmware from CFcard. The latter is likely because of corrupt files or sectors.

Best regards,
