Station Not Initialised

Post by richardmcb »

I've been running a WS2083 since October without any real hassles until yesterday when after rebooting my PC I got the following errors:-

5/09/2013 8:52:37 a.m. : The station is not initialised
5/09/2013 8:52:37 a.m. : Byte 0 = 50 Byte 1 = 02
5/09/2013 8:52:37 a.m. : Try resetting the console


I presume that means I will need to power down the WS, i.e. remove the battery and restart.

Am I going to lose all my data?

Yes, you will lose the data in the station's logger. See the FAQ: http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#When_I ... ialised.22

You could try the setting mentioned there; you might be lucky.

Thanks Steve (I think!)


I'll cut my losses and do the battery/usb thing
