Thanks to a Pierce Norton (a BDIS service representative in the US, just
for those who have not experienced the power of the internet, as well as
good BDIS service...), the problem I had is pretty much solved.
It is a problem concerning the battery, if the battery goes too low, the
status board get's somehow blocked and has to be released by changing a
potentiometer setting on the status board (more details on request)....
Pierce, thanks very very much, I tried to get back to you by phone, but the
number you gave me didn't work (or I wrote down the wrong number...).
Anyway, your instructions were great... really appreciated it.
Cheers, and thanks to all who replied in addition.
Matthias
