    HDR - FOX T2 Not powering up

    Only just spotted this. It's from the pix it's the original version with the optimistically-rated capacitor C3 in the PSU snubber network so it might be worth checking it's not failed s/c See this thread.

    [webif] 1.5.x

    Updated to the webif beta 1.5.2-7 on Sunday and it's now doing the prolonged " Processing request..." thing just it as did following updating to webif beta 1.4.9-1 - see my post further back in this thread. I've not yet applied the fix given at the time.
