Topic: UCXii power connection

I've just set up a UCXii brand new out the box and if I move the unit it switches it self off. It looks like its the power supply connection into the unit.

If this a fault with the unit. Or does every have this issue.

If I wiggle the power supply cable gently the unit switches off. even though the green light on the actual power cable remains on.

Loathed to send it back as I've waited so long for one of these

Re: UCXii power connection

I believe it is lockable, so it is probably not inserted correctly or fully. See the manual

Yezzz...
The  connector  at  the  power  supply  and  the  socket  at  the  unit  come
with  a  turn  to  lock  feature.  When  inserting  the  connector  make
sure the little wings are aligned correctly so that the connector is
fully inserted. Then turn the connector so that it is locked and can no
longer  be  removed.  If  not  fully  inserted  the  connection  will  be  loose
and cause power loss when the cable is moved.

Re: UCXii power connection

Its definitely inserted correctly but I didnt know about the lock.

If I lift the cable straight up the device shuts down

Hi Robert,

The power jack is not fully connected. I just sent you an email with an attachment demonstrating the locking tabs, I hope that helps.

A massive thank you both!!!

I didn't realise that it HAD to be locked. That has indeed fixed the issue.

Thank you Robert
