Maybe the\nlithium polymer cells are death and COMPASS is working only in full sunlight\ndue the solar panels current. \n\nI could command COMPASS this morning twice and heard two beacons :-)\nThe battery voltage was 2.98 V (first pass) and 2.82 V in the second pass.\nThe CPU onboard needs 3 Volts.\n\nIf you have the time (!) you can try to send the following commands:\n\n****14#200# unchanged\n****13#200# unchanged\n****16#255# critical batt to max -> always emergency mode to save more\npower\n\nThanks for your efforts and I wish I had better news as well....\n\n73, Mike\n\n\n\n-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht-----\nVon: Bob DeVarney W1ICW [mailto:[email protected]] \nGesendet: Freitag, 22.
