Hi

Any ideas thanks

Not 12 hrs, get it down powered then re-commisioned once the power is reinstated. Otherwise you'll be up in the night along with your neighbours.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

No problem, also not uncommon for the nvm chip in the 9800 to dump the programming.

thanks
