Thank you Andries,

I'll give it a try, but it's not what the M-DRO guidelines tell you to do. The problem is, all worked fine previously, but now it's just stopped working. Let's see what Allendale (M-DRO) have to say next week. Fortunately it's still under warranty (just).

Hi Bo'sun, In the UK a suppliers warranty period is irrelevant, UK consumer law states an item should be of reasonable quality and last a reasonable time, just a heads up but I think Allendale are a decent company.

Good afternoon all,

Well, would you Adam & Eve it. Over the weekend I got my partner to give me her thoughts (she's a better button pusher than me). Low and behold, doing nothing different, the DRO burst into life, and "touch wood" has been fine ever since.

This afternoon a gentleman from M-DRO (Allendale) called in response to my enquiry, and although there wasn't much he could say, he did suggest the cause may be due to the unit having been unused for some time. Which is the case. Apparently, unlike some units that use membrane switches, the MDC700 uses mechanical switches, so who knows?

Anyway, thanks for all the comments and suggestions.
