RTK Facet locked in the Config mode

Facet locked up in the config mode while exploring this function. The button would not responce. I could still connect to it with Wifi and look at the parameters. But it would not power down or change modes. I had to disconnect the battery connector to restore function. I did not see a hard reset button. I could install a small slide switch to disconnect the battery if it happens again? Any problems doing this?

Holding down the power button will turn it off. I believe it is 15 to 20 seconds should do it.

mgphoto’s is correct with the manual override.

This will not harm the unit at all. Go for it!

I held it a good 30 sec. It was locked up pretty good.

I had a similar issue with mine. It was a couple of weeks back now, but I think it was when I was finished in config mode and was trying to change it back out. It just froze and became unresponsive. I held the button down for a significant period of time, but may not have hit the 20 second threshold or whatever. Ended up having to pull it apart and disconnect the battery cable.

That is exactly what I was doing, backing out of the config mode when it locked up. I have seen other processed base electronics do that.
