M-Series LED flickers ->?

Post by ColoZZZ » Thu Mar 20, 2008 8:02 pm

My M-Series LED light will often flicker if I shut down for a few moments in the middle of the night. It's a regular flash every few seconds. Is this a common occurrence and can anyone explain what's happening?

Thanks,

-Andy

If the mask off warning is set, it could be that.

Thanks for the responses. This happens after I've shut down the machine so it doesn't seem like it would be a mask off warning. Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks again,

When it happened to me it was a reminder to order a new mask - is there a message on the LED when the machine is off?

Interesting - I'll have to check next time I see it - the only time I notice the flicker is during the middle of the night when I can't read the LED without turning on a light. Now that you mention it, it wouldn't be at all surprising if the DME set the machine up to prompt users to order more equipment. I'll have to check.

Thanks!
