I found the same thing today and upon investigating found the the power cord was not completely plugged in, so the unit was operating under battery power and was turning off the displlay to save power. After securing the power connector is has been OK today. ___end___ Sun Jul 14 02:01:54 GMT 2013: PSPT Abort Patrol Sun Jul 14 02:03:29 GMT 2013 CHIP End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Sun Jul 14 02:03:16 GMT 2013 In clouds, instruments idled. ___end___ Sun Jul 14 02:23:42 GMT 2013 MkIV
