V2Plus4 Problems - any advice please ?


RandMental
 

Good day

Seeing I don’t get any response on the official forum, perhaps some here can assist?

I have not used my original V2Plus4 device for a while and updated to the latest firmware.

It now does not calibrate correctly, does not remember the calibration, and above about 140MHz it displays only noise - even after calibration and with both ports terminated with 50Ohm

Please see the attached file for photos of the screens.

Any ideas please - it is the V2Plus4 version before the display change.

I replied to you on the official forum both by e-mail, and on the Web page, but I've seen neither. I'll try direct as well this time.

I suggested: "Try charging it."

Cheers,
David

Sorry, that was reply to someone whose calibration didn't stick.

I would suggest re- flashing with a previous version. It sounds like you may have flashed it with a version for another device model.

Hi David - as per report back on the official channel
Thanks for the suggestion.

Morning Dave

Thanks for the reply - that is what I throught as well, using a wrong version.

Tried various flashing methods - VNA-QT & NanoVNA-App, and even moved back to the orrignal 2020 firmware - all do more or less the same.
even tried DisLord's firmware going back a few versions.

The electronics are most screened off - so I cannot really meaure anything
