System locked up

ReefTron5000 · 01/19/2019, 01:23 PM

Woke up this morning to a frozen display. Nothing was responding. Web interface would come up but the numbers there were stale as well. I have an Apex Aquacontroler, two EB8s and a PM1. I disconnected the main power. System turned off. I plugged it back in.

Now the status light is green on the main Aquacontroler board but both EB8s and the PM1 have a orange flashing status light. Display is dead too.

Help?

Orange blinking light means the EB8s and PM1 can't talk to the base unit. Try unplugging the Aquabus/USB cables at both ends of all runs and plug them back in to reseat them.

Did you have a power loss or brown out overnight?

When you log on to the web interface, does it show the modules? (EB/PM/display) Are there multiples?
