I didn't check the battery, I just put a new one.
I think the cold&wet air in the garage might have something to do with it.
I can't see any other reason, or maybe a short circuit on the board causing
this.
Anyway, I've had four systems suffering from this now while I was setting
them up.
(all 4 directly after each other, that's why I felt some kind of panic)
I've just set up 3 others and they were ok.
Tomorrow I will check the rest of the EN's I have and hope they are ok too
:-)
Tnx for your suggestions and help,
