Hello all,
Hope someone can help. As the title says, I've got a TS-7260 with a BAT3 board
on it, down here in Antarctica. I'm using it to wake up and transmit GPS
coordinates via Iridium from an ice shelf.
I'm running it from external batteries, but thought I would charge the on-board
BAT3 batteries too. So, I do something like this:
bat3 --charge 300 &
//...wait a while
PSID=`ps | grep "bat3 --charge" | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
kill -SIGHUP $PSID
bat3 --sleep 4000
When I do this, the system reboots, but does not sleep. It doesn't even really
reboot, just goes:

..etc. I can get of this by shorting the ISP pins. I've seen similar behaviour
when voltages are low, but the onboard right now is 3.6V and a steady 12.6V on
the line voltage.
And, if I reboot, muddle out of it, and do a sleep -without- the charge/kill,
usually there's no problem - it sleeps the indicated time, then wakes up fine.
For posterity, here's the bat3 response:
----Normal-----
Supply Voltage ADC = 492C
Regulated Voltage ADC = 6444
Battery Voltage = 3.54V (A848)
Battery Current = -1648020uA
PWM LO = 0033
PWM T = 004F
TEMP = 83.3F
PWM 1 EN = OFF
PWM 2 EN = OFF
OFFSET EN = OFF
OPAMP EN = OFF
BUCK EN = ON
LED = ON
JP3 = OFF
Running on LINE VOLTAGE
------ After a charge/kill ------------
Supply Voltage ADC = 48F9
Regulated Voltage ADC = 640C
Battery Voltage = 3.65V (AD4B)
Battery Current = 299040uA
PWM LO = 0168
PWM T = 01F4
TEMP = 83.4F
PWM 1 EN = ON
PWM 2 EN = ON
OFFSET EN = OFF
OPAMP EN = ON
BUCK EN = OFF
LED = ON
JP3 = OFF
Running on LINE VOLTAGE
Any help would be welcome. Thanks!
