Hello,
I am having a problem with one of my TZT2L15 units, the other is working ok. I will try to detail the events as best as I can.
I originally purchased the units with 2.X version of software.
The unit that I am having problems with was set as the Chart Master and on our second trip out it turned itself off after 8-10 hours of working fine, and it was noted that the screen was visibly warmer to the touch than the other unit. Both units are hooked to the same power supply and I confirmed 13v to both units. We turned off the breaker to this unit and turned it back on but the unit would still not come up. Some time later (1 hour?) it booted fine and continued to work the rest of the day. That night sometime, it turns itself off again (overheat?). Anyway, after a bit, it boots back up and all seems ok again. During the time the unit was off, the secondary unit appeared to provide NMEA2000 data to the Autopilot, etc...
I upgraded the firmware to 3.01 sometime thereafter, and did not see the reboot issue for some time, but it may have occurred on the 3.01 firmware, I cannot be certain. I then upgraded to 4.01 in December 2016 and all seemed ok, but I started to experience blue screen half-boot where it was stuck. (pic related linked below)
The power button nor the screen is responsive when this occurs. You can turn off the breaker and reapply power and then it always has booted ok the second time. I tried swapping the units physically so they used the wiring from the other unit and then made the other unit the chart master and this one the non-master. The problem continued to plague this unit so I do not think it is related to the network. This half-boot occurs probably once out of every 10 starts based on the pics I have taken in my phone and the dates it occurred.
Last weekend, on an overnight the unit died twice, warm to the touch and the other unit continued to work fine as usual. I have performed a master reset, but not after installing 4.01. Other than a master reset which I will preform this weekend, can anyone make a recommendation for further troubleshooting?
TIA,
Shane
