I have 2 OSTC Mk1 which I am unable to charge after being in storage.

The blue LED on the USB interface is lit. A faint flashing orange light is present on the OSTC itself as well as a faint blue USB on the OSTC as well. From time to time a line flashes across the screen too.

After several hours of charging, the OSTC is not able to start it up.

Thanks in Advance

Hi Paul,

Unlikely but possible is that the battery drained completely. The unit will enter a battery saving mode and stop all normal operations. Try a magnet reset then (See attached picture). USB-Power must be attached in order to trigger the reset.

But, I think this is related to a more serious battery or hardware problem. Please contact us directly then: info@heinrichsweikamp.com

Many thanks for your reply. I'll try your suggestion and post the result.

I have tried a mgnet reset as suggested, but as you suspected this has not been succesful.

I have sent a mail explaining and asking what to do next.

As recpmended by mail, a reset on the inerface unit sorted this problem on both computers.

Many thanks for the prompt help.
