    Hi all you CAN-view owners,

    My CAN-view (v3) had been workng perfectly until a couple of weeks ago. The first clue was when I enable EV mode, the MFD would no longer automatically switch to CAN-view mode like it used to. When I manually switch to CAN-view mode on the MFD it is essentially blank except for the buttons on the bottom, like this...

    [attachmentid=11473]

    And those buttons no longer do anything.

    I checked all the connections except the one at the back of the MFD (which is a pain to get to). But it looks to me like a software/firmware problem within the unit.

    Norm: Are you still around? I remember you saying you were no longer building CAN-view units a while back.

    Anyone else seen this, or have any ideas what's wrong?

    TIA,

    Paul.

    Have you tried updating to the latest version or reflash it?

    Not yet, I thought about doing this, but don't have the necessary parts (external power supply, USB programmer and flashing software). I plan to get them.

    No DICE unit attached? Have you disconnected the power from the CANview and replugged it in?

    Nope, no DICE unit. I'll try the power disconnnect. And I heard from Norm that the lastest V3 upgrades (CAN=SCsep067 and TV=SVjul097) should fix the problem
