Crystal Focus problem “Diatium cell missing”?
« on: January 16, 2020, 06:25:08 PM »
 I’m wiring up another Crystal Focus X and I’m experiencing something new. It seems to be working other than when I hit the activation button after shuffling through the sound bank selection instead of turning the saber on the menu says diatium cell missing. Anyone know what seems to be my problem? This is something I haven’t heard  on this board yet.

That's the "dead battery" indication with a UI sound (and graphics if you have OLED). Low battery is < 10% of the PLI scale, dead battery is <1%.

I do have one other question. Is the small red LED on the board supposed to be blinking the whole time I’m charging? Because that’s new for me to witness.

no, you're powering the board while charging which is really bad
