Display "locks up"
• Insufficient power during power up or a power surge may cause the console
to lock up. If this occurs, remove all power—disconnect any battery backup
and the AC power cord. Wait for 1 minute with all of the power removed.
Then, while the battery is removed, reconnect the AC power cord and listen
for 2 beeps within 10 seconds.
Note: If you have the WeatherLink installed, listen for 3 beeps within 20 seconds and then, if all is well,
try communicating with the WeatherLink using a computer.
• Once you receive the final beep, install a fresh backup battery, if desired, and
put it back into service.
• Davis recommends plugging the console’s power adapter into a computer-
grade surge protector to help avoid this problem.
