Rosie really starting to upset me

Gang,

Well it's started again. Rosie will up and stop operating for several seconds. No reason why, just up and quits. This is the second unit.

So, I upgraded firmware to 24.11.8 for rosie and 24.12.10 for MNGP

After upgrade, I now have a flashing warning LED and the fault screen shows two faults with Rosie.
1. High battery temperature
2. Low battery Temperature

Now you can't have those occur at the same time. Nothing was changed, I sure didn't mess with the temp sensor or cabling.

I cycled power and no joy.

Is there a way to reset the faults?

Oh, yeah, one more thing. When I updated, the MNGP wanted to start all over with type of battery, time and date and so on. I don't recall doing that the last time I upgraded firmware.

Rosie is really starting to piss me off.

The two faults are a bug in Rosie code, You can unplug the temp sensor for now.

Do you have the event logs for the outage?

The update forcing the renaming etc is because Rosie had a major update and when it does it forces a reset

Thanks! Much needed info.

That high and low temp warning at the same time sure was different. Uploaded the newest frimware and Rosie is no long flashing a red warning LED.

Okay on the reset update too,

Fingers crossed.

Has anyone ever figured out why Rosie just up and drops power for a few seconds before starting back up? It seems rather random, and I'm unable to force a power dropout.
