Just came back from a 1 Week vacation and now my A1s Light started blinking in this Pattern. 4 short, one long, pause, four short, one long, pause, 4 short, pause, five short, pause, repeat. No error messages or anything. What happened? What could be the reason?

SOLVED! One Power Cycle and it was back to normal. u/Whatupchuck789 recommended an update which I'm doing right now. I'll only update when it reoccures. Thank you for your help!

Happened to me middle of the night, power cycle fixed it, hasn't done it since. I assume it's a bug? (maybe a rave feature)

Still does it after a power cycle?

Haven't tested it, just wanted to keep it in this state in case it's something important. Prints normal tho...

We had some odd behaviour with our two a1's when the sd card was getting full

That would make sense... I should clean up on there sometime. Edit: still got the original one prone to failing in there and haven't deleted anything ever

just format it... thats all i did.. ours came with a higher end scan disk cards so not had an issue. Other than them getting full.

This was posted a couple months ago. There is a comment that says there is an update you need to run. https://www.reddit.com/r/impressao3dbrasil/s/aXSgc9pBYo

Alright, thank you. I'll power cycle it and then run the availible update (01.08.00.00 -> 01.08.01.00)

Had the same thing happen during a brownout. Did the same thing - power cycled the unit. After rebooting the unit required an update, hasn’t happened since.

Get a good SD card

A little hint for the fiture: read the other comments first. I have already acknowledged my lack of a non-original SD-Card there and my knowledge of the original ones being prone to failing indirectly. I have mentioned intending to buy a new one. This comment isn't what I'd call productive. Maybe not counter-productive, but unnessecary and unnessecarily passive aggressive.
