LS-CH1.0TL-US Blinking Red Light, Can't connect

[Amy]

Hi,

I have an LS-CH1.0TL-US that was working great until a couple weeks ago.  Then it kept disconnecting and saying it was going into Emergency Mode.  I turned it off, and went to get a backup drive just in case, and when I came back and turned it on, it has a steady blinking red light, and can't connect at all.  Is there a way to get the data off the drive, or is it all lost forever.

 

Thanks in advance!

P.S. I have both Mac and PC computers that I used for this drive, and it won't connect to either anymore.  I don't know how to check the firmware to know what version I had on it.

What is the pattern to the red light?  The Nas Navi client utitlity can it pick it up?  If the unit is still in Em mode then you will need to reflash the firmware. This is a screen shot of the diffrent versions.

The image doesn't open for some reason.  It blinks 6 times and then pauses.  The NAS Navigator isn't able to find it.

You need to Boot the unit into Em Mode then try the TFTP boot.
