If the device does not show an initial text onto its display while turning the switch from off to on position, then please verify whether the device is connected to a power source. The RS232 connection does not supply the device with current.
If the SICOLOG cannot hold the real time after a power cycle, please power the SICOLOG for at least 2 hours and reprogram the SICOLOG via a programming cable with TEMES.
If the SICOLOG does not communicate with TEMES then the following procedure might be helpful (note, that the SICOLOG does not communicate during USB stick preallocation):
•Turn SICOLOG off
•Remove USB stick
•SICOLOG/USBDL1 Firmware ≥ V1.0.29 only: Move the Record slider in off position.
•Firmware ≥ V1.0.16: Hold both buttons B3 and B4 and startup the SICOLOG. (Respectively, hold both buttons NEXT and INS and startup the SICO3, or hold both buttons B1 and B2 and startup the USBDL1/SICO3M.)
Firmware ≥ V1.0.0: Bridge pin 2 and pin 3 (= two lower pins) of the connector LOGIC I/O, e. g. with a straightened electrically conducting paper clip
•Turn SICOLOG on (note that a programmed parameter set won't be loaded)
•Wait 5 seconds
•Remove the bridge (e. g. remove the paper clip)
•Program the SICOLOG with TEMES
