As mine was 'repaired' by acquiring a replacement PSU, I don't have any further suggestion ! But there have been recent posts on the forum pointing to some expertise. Long shot: I know you verified with two other apparently OK PSUs, but might they be a bit old in the tooth ? If you can get access to an adjustable bench top PSU you might carefully feed it from that and see if the problem persists. I set a maximum current limit before attaching the bench top PSU. I recall that the SB took up to about 0.8A at some point during its start up, and did not fully power up with input voltage much less than 5V. In reality I probably started with a maximum current of, say, 0.25A to start with, and a lower voltage, and worked my way up to successful operation. So a new PSU solved it. Caution: I seem to recall that there is power to the display at a relatively high voltage, more than 50V, so take appropriate precautions before you poke around or handle it with the covers off. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109765 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
