Title: TM13 Failures
Post by: kathekas on November 05, 2008, 11:10:31 AM

Hi

Occasionally, we get failures where the power goes on and off several times quite quickly.

Following these events the TM13 I have in use no longer works.

Does anyone know what is the problem, how to prevent it and are the units repairable?

Thanks in anticipation

If you unplug the TM13 and then wait a few minutes. Is it still dead when reconnected?
Sometimes fast on and off power cycles can confuse modules. The power down lets them start from scratch.
