colibri
Hey guys, I have a question about my Colibri. It has stopped recording
flights and when it turns on I get this message, "init memory" And it says that the internal seal is not valid. I obviously have to get it re-calibrated. But it has never stopped recording flight when it was past it's re-calibration date. Any ideas? Thanks, Ryan |

I obviously have to get it re-calibrated. But it has never stopped recording flight when it was past it's re-calibration date. Any ideas? Thanks, Ryan From page 29 of the Colibri manual: "7 Problems The following problems and messages might be seen: · If INIT MEMORY appears after each power up, the lithium back up battery is defective and should be exchanged by an authorized LX service dealer. · Unit ‘hangs’ during initialization. The most likely reason is a corrupted TP/TSK data base. Carry out the INIT MEMORY procedure (see below) and reload the data base. If it happens again, then the TP/TSK database may be corrupt - look for strange characters and glitches. If LXe is used to load the database, it automatically checks for corruption and will not allow it to be loaded if corrupt. However, third party programs may not provide this protection · SEAL NOT valid message informs that the electronic data security seal has operated. If this message is seen in conjunction with the INIT MEMORY message, then the lithium data back up is defective and should be replaced. If the seal defect alone is reported, then a possible reason is the use of third party programs. Both these defects can be repaired by an authorized LX service dealer. An unsealed unit will continue to operate satisfactorily when the ESC button is pressed, but the ‘G’ record will be missing and any flight records downloaded will fail IGC validation.
