OpenLog

I am having difficulty getting my OpenLog unit working. I have had it for a while and just decided to put it in a project yesterday. I had it working in default mode, file names Logxxx were created from the sketch that is on the OpenLog wiki. Then I got the idea that I wanted to create my own filenames. I found some stuff on the forum, web, can’t really remember, but it looked right. I modified it some :-), and tried to make it work. I am using the Rx,Tx lines on the arduino pro with an XBee that is running in command mode so I can’t put the OpenLog unit there. I am using NewSoftSerial. I couldn’t get the filename code to work, so I thought I would try it on a different device, one I could use the arduino Rx, Tx lines on. I moved the OpenLog to a uno and all I could get is the green led to flash. When it worked the Blue led would stay lit while it was writing the data.

Now, after the attempt to get the filename stuff working, all I can get is the green led to flash a couple of times when the arduino is powered up. At this point, all I want is for it to go back to the default logging and have it work.

The question is, are there any diagnostics to know whats up with the OpenLog device?
