Firmware 1.9.2.7 CR9

[akbor]

Hi,

I discovered following minor bugs with my WL-HDD and FW release 1.9.2.7-9. Sorry that I post to the wrong sub-forum, but I'm pretty sure, there is no way to get an answer in the WL-HDD sub-forum...

1. The RTC works with 1.9.2.7-9 on WL-HDD well, but I didn't found a way to eliminate following error message from the system log:

Mar 21 13:59:12 kernel: ***RTC BATTERY FAILURE***

the battery is definitely OK and not faulty, 3,2 V measured

2. The behaviour of the reset button has changed. I wanted to shut down my WL-HDD, but I couldn't. After pressing the reset button down and waiting a couple of seconds, till the power LED is off and releasing the button WL-HDD didn't go in OFF state - it made a restart!

P.S./EDIT: On my other device WL-500gP the behaviour of the reset button is different, but either not like described in the 1.9.2.7-6 (last change of the reset behaviour) release note

Restore to defaults/shutdown are now called using RESTORE/RESET button as follows: 
first 3 seconds - power LED on: release button to do nothing 
next 5 seconds - power LED off: release button to "shutdown" 
next 5 seconds - power LED blinking: release button to reset to defaults 
start over

the power LED starts to blink immediately (approx. 1 sec) after pressing the reset button down. Of course I didn't want to set my device to default, so I waited several seconds till the power LED stopped blinking. There was no way to shut down the device with the reset button.

P.P.S./EDIT2: ok, I must be blind, have not seen "Disabled "power off" for all units except WL-HDD" statement in the 1.9.2.7-7g release note. So please forget the WL-500gP issue, but WL-HDD does definitely restart instead of shut down.


That's just my feedback to the new FW release.

Regards

Robert
