- raygregg114 - 06-16-2014 Hi, since I updated my firmware on my Comfort II I get a battery warning every 24 hours. I have disconnected the mains and the system goes onto battery power so it looks like the battery is OK. The battery is about 5 years old. Do I need to change a setting on the new firmware or buy a new battery? - juwi_uk - 06-17-2014 My money would be on buying a new battery!ðŸâ¢ËðŸâ¢â°Ã°Å¸â¢Å - ident - 06-17-2014 Normally a battery should need to be replaced every 3 to 5 years Do a battery test by pressing F31 on the keypad This turns off the mains and testes the battery for 2 minutes If the battery is low it will report battery warning The low battery warning should not be due to firmware - juwi_uk - 06-17-2014 I had a similar problem on my test rig a few months ago and it started failing battery tests each morning and I could see nothing obviously wrong. Battery looked healthy too. Probably not the case here but mine turned out to be a bad connection of battery wire into pcb socket; I just reseated the cable to fix. Not saying that would be case here but if you\'ve also played with cabling recently then maybe also worth a check. Julian - raygregg114 - 06-17-2014 Cheers Julian will check that out. |
