    250ci Ops Panel Problem

    I Have a 250ci, that when going into power, the only way to get the ops panel to come back, is to switch the machine off and then on again, it's not the power save button, as you can manually power it off. Any Ideas?

    Of course, re-load your firmware if you haven't already. Is there a backlight, with a blank screen? Do you have any lights on the display, or is everything dark?

      Everything is OK, the machine works fine, and it boots up OK, its just it won't wake up out of power save, it will stay on all day, as its used, but in the morning you have to switch on and off to get it to work

        Kinda sounds like Windows 7 when it was still in beta. Updates fixed the Windows 7 problem, maybe firmware updates will fix your's.

          so after it goes into power save mode, you can't turn it back on with the PS button, and it won't turn off/on with the power button on the display? And you can use the Power Save when its on?

            thats right, the power save button works as normal, I have reflashed the firmware, but I will try again

              Came in this morning and it worked, hasn't done for weeks, maybe the ops panel fairies have been in over night

                I'll get flack for this, but I'd try lower firmware, say 9.01
                Just because there are newer versions of the firmware doesn't make then bug-free.

                If it's functioning, I'd wait for the next event. =^..^=
                If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
                3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
                4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
                5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
