My Cerbo GX displays a blinking orange light for about 30 seconds and then shuts down. I’m able to access vrm and remote seams to be working ok. Why won’t by Cerbo lights stay on? My components are a 500amp shunt, 460ah epoch battery, 2 smart solar chargers, Orion XS, 12 volt multiplus1 2000/80-50 and a link distributor.
This indicates that the CERBO boot process is corrupted, and needs a reload form a sim card.

Thank Mike!
Should I download the beta firmware to an sd card and then insert the sd card into the cerbo and reboot while placing a pin in the cerbo reset?
Its best to start with a normal release version when troubleshooting.
the Download should be the referenced version of ‘Einstein’ this can be loaded into the slot on a powered down Cerbo, and then power turned on. No need to push any reset button, it should load automatically. once the SD card has loaded, the LED’s should be showing normal colours. However, after loading, it’s best to remove the SD card and do a power cycle. After functional testing, the firmware can be updated normally.
Thank for the explanation Mike. It’s been frustrating, I really appreciate you help.
Hi Skip No worries, That’s what this forum is here for. I needed a lot of help first time I had to do this.
