Anyway, I have a few questions I was hoping someone might be able to answer for me. BTW, I am sure I have seen some these questions before, but I cannot find them again.

First, it has 3.25 of the firmware loaded.

The most important relates to the hand controller. The keys do not light up when I use it. The LCD is working fine, and it goes to sleep after the period of inactivity. It lights up when I press a key, but none of the other keys do. Is something wrong, or is there a setting in there that I cannot find?

Next, when I did the original setup I get a message on the screen:
Polaris HA=22:48
Clock=06:35
I ignored it and things worked fine. I am just wondering what this is. I went back and checked that I had all the settings correct, like long and lat, and time zone.

The last one. The handset for the EQ5 looks exactly the same. I cannot tell them apart. I assume that they would be interchangeable????

Thanks
Darrell
Hi Darrell

Yeah, i upgraded to 325 at the weekend, and i noticed this, not backlight on the handset! hopefully this is something that can be fixed on the next release, although there is a setting on there for light timout on the handset, so maybe thats reset or something, but yeah, i noticed it.

Yeah, the handsets are completely interchangealble.
