We installed a TZT2 15 in our boat this spring and have been using it for the past few months, probably about 100+ hrs logged on the unit. We have updated it to the latest firmware (3.01). On a few separate occasions, the unit has temporarily failed to power / boot up. The process has been the following:
1. Hop on the boat turn "on" the battery switches.
2. The TZT2 power switch turns amber, indicating that there is power to the unit.
3. Press the power button, power button turns black for a moment (may flash green, I can't recall)
.... Here the unit typically* starts to boot up, but on a few occasions the switch and screen will remain black and nothing happens. After waiting about 60 seconds or so, the unit still will not boot (typically boot begins in about 3 seconds or so).
4. If the unit has not booted, the power button remains black and subsequent presses will not produce a response.
5. Switch batteries off
6. Switch batteries back on
7. TZT2 power switch illuminates amber, press power switch and unit boots up.
On one occasion, two back-to-back battery "resets" were required in order to get the unit to boot.
So far the unit has not left us high and dry, but each time this happens, I lose confidence in the unit. Obviously i'm worried that at some point the unit may completely refuse to boot.
Can anyone provide any insight?
Thank you
