Hi,

I had the problem that the Flashpro does not work in the morning supposably reason at the moment we have cold temperatures here in Germany 3 - 9 C°.
My FP is mounted in the car and connected all the time to the CAN. But it was dead and I could not start logging. No blinking LED etc.

... I could fix the issue after warming up the car and set up the air ventilation to high. After that the environment from the car was approx. 15 - 20C°.
After the ride to the work I re-connected the FP to the CAN and viola the FP takes a deep breath and it was still alive.
> Thank God! the FP is not damaged.

I am very happy if you could provide the performed tests of the temperature which the FP will operate stable.

Regards

We claim operation down to 0C, and I've tested to around -10C, as long as there is no condensation. Did anything happen when you unplugged it and plugged it back in again (both from USB and the OBDI connector)?

After plugged it back again the FP works fine.
From time to time I have now the issue (if the environment is cold) that the FP will record one or two seconds after pressing the datalog button, only.
The FP stops recording automatically after unplug all (USB and OBD connector) and reconnect again all works fine... This phenomenon I have only in cold temperatures at the moment and is a sporadic issue I can not reproduce this case every time.

It seems that something hangs from time to time so the FP needs a reboot and all works fine.
Currently the FP beta 2.3.2.0 is installed. I will update today to 2.3.3.0
