CPAinTX Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I seem to have done something to get the display to turn off on the remote. How do I turn it back on since I can't see the display to pull up the list?I apologize if this is a C4 101 question, but the person that used to handle my C4 has fallen off the face so I have NO idea how to do anything. Including making sure my system is up to date. I'm working on finding a new service provider, but I need to get this remote thing figured out.Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me.

jberger Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Remote model would be helpful. Honestly, if you changed the batteries and still have no display, it's probably broken. I'll guess it's a version 1 remote which had LSC issues when dropped. The SR-250's are MUCH more resistant to screen damage, as my kids can put them through quite a workout.

CPAinTX Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm pretty sure it's the newest remote, but I'll check when I get home tonight. I went to list, remote, display and it just cut out after that. I changed the batteries and reset the system, but no luck. Thanks for the response. Guess I'm gonna have to get a move on with finding someone who can help me with it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 What color is the display? Is it yellow text on a black background, or a backlit LCD, which was more of a black text on grey background?The SR-250 is a yellow OLED screen.The v.1 and v.2 remotes were LCD screens. As jberger mentioned, they were much more susceptible to having the display break due to the remote being dropped or otherwise mishandled (although the v.2 were *much* improved in that regard).Sorry to say, but if you have pulled the batteries, left them out for some time, and put them back in, and you still have no display, that does point to a hardware failure.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The good news is that they have a two year warranty.Those haven't been out for two years yet have they? If so, it is really close.You should be able to get it warrantied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The SR-250 came out in fall of 2008, the two-year warranty started in Jan. 07 for items bought from an authorized dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFUG Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 On 1.8 I just had a SR that blanked-out quite few times. Battery-boot brought it back. This SR was in Search mode at the time trying to join the mesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
