Random DL1 Issues
Posted: Thu Sep 11, 2008 5:07 pm
My DL1 mk2 has been acting up recently. I use it for solo/autocross mostly and with our National championships coming up next week, would like to get the DL1 operating appropriately again.
First issue: About a month ago at an event, the DL1 quit tracking satellites. The GPS lock light stayed off and it of course made my data files blank when I tried to log. I reflashed the DL1 last week with the hex file I had from around April this year, and when I tested it, all the lights came on again as they should and I thought all was well, not quite.
Second issue: All the status indicators seem to work fine, but when I attempt to log, it only logs for about 5-10 seconds then stops logging on its own. I am thinking this may be related to the original GPS issue. Is it possible I am losing satellite lock and it is causing the log to stop? Anyone have any ideas?
