Ah, right you are!

The TS-7260 was installed in the TS-ENC720 enclosure and running off
the PS-18VDC-110V wall mounted power supply.  There is also an 8-relay
 array controller (Industrologic RIO-8) being driven by the power supply.

Switching to a 12V battery seems to have corrected the spontaneous
reboot issue.  The 7260 with the AERO and RIO-8 has been running for a
half hour or so, which is much longer than it ran off the wall mount
power supply.

I haven't actually built and loaded the driver yet, but having the
boot sequence complete is certainly a big step in the right direction.

Not really sure if the AREO board is using significant power, or if it
is the relay array, or if the wall mount power supply doesn't have a
large margin.   

Looks like I need to look into my power consumption budget ;)


Thanks very much!
