Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I was doing a test on the duinomite with a realtime clock and left the duinomite on for 2 days... and then unplugged it to see how long it would work on the small li-ion battery.
After this the duinomite has started showing the copyright text every second. It is not restarting, since if I write commands (for example print pin(21)) I get results... it is just that the copyright text is showing every second and disturbing the output of the command.
I tried:
- pressing the reset button
- unplugging everything and then plugging again
- reflashing the firmware (duinomite mmbasic 4.5 with CAN)
- looked at the board, but see no damage

At this time I wonder if I am missing something obvious - like setting in the terraterm that resets the terminal every 1 second, or similar.

Any ideas?

Here is an image from it...

It could be because it is detecting a fresh USB connection every second. Try disconnecting the USB and see if it stops.

Yes, this is it!
I think it is the driver or port on my laptop that has gone bad - I tested with different cables, but no difference, and then I tested with another laptop and there was no problem at all...

I will have to figure out if it is the driver or something else that is wrong.

Thanks again for the help!
