6.3 BreadCrumb Power and Start-Up Issues
Table 12: BreadCrumb Power and Start-Up Issues.
Problem Resolution
Discharged external batteries can cause a
BreadCrumb to appear to power up(“PWR”
LED is lit), but fail to start-up.
Monitory battery usage and charge/replace
batteries as necessary.
Electrostatic Discharge can cause a BreadCrumb
to appear to power up (Status LED indicates
power is on with a white light, which can
sometimes appear pale blue or pale green), but
fail to start-up.
Manually reboot the device by turning off or
disconnecting power to the device and turning
power back on.
For BreadCrumbs powered by PoE, in order to
avoid sparking and possible damage to the
device, be sure to connect the powered Ethernet
cable to the BreadCrumb before applying power
to the power supply.
Rapid power cycling can cause a BreadCrumb
JR to appear to power up (“PWR” LED is lit)
but fail to start-up.
Turn off power to the device, wait at least 10
seconds and turn power back on. The
BreadCrumb should start-up normally.
Connecting a cable assembly which has an
active power source (like a battery pack) to a
BreadCrumb JR can cause the power to
fluctuate at startup if it is connected with an
unsteady hand. This can cause the BreadCrumb
to appear to power up (“PWR” LED is lit), but
fail to start-up.
● Disconnect the cable assembly, wait 10
seconds, and try to make the connection
again more smoothly.
● Try connecting the cable assembly to the
BreadCrumb before connecting or
applying power to the power supply.
