B.B.B. turn off automatically

[saeidi....@gmail.com]

Hi

My BeagleBone turn off automatically after 5 or 6 hours, whats the problem?

Do you have any idea?

Thanks

Could be old software. Some earlier versions of Debian did that.

What version software are you using?

Could be a weak power supply.

Is your power supply good enough to power the peak currents for the BeagleBone at all times?

Are you using a PocketBeagle, and not a BeagleBone?

The PocketBeagles do that, if powered from the external power input.

Are you running on an external 5 volt power supply and not just the USB cable to your P.C.?

Type in the following two commands:

cat /etc/dogtag

uname -a

I am not saying this is the problem but have you considered upgrading to the current image?

It sure sounds like either a temperature or supply issue. My Beaglebone is happy with only a 5V 2Amp supply.

If you touch the chips on the board after its been on for several hours are they getting hot?

I have used well over 200 bones
Once and a while there is one bone that just fails to keep running
I toss it in the "for testing only" bin and use another one

some bones just fail

evilwulfie,

You obviously have more experience in this area then I.

I will back off from this topic.
