I've built the Humanoid A and been setting systems up, its was working well last night. Now this morning the CM-5 power light comes on for 3-4 secs the program mode LED flashes at the same time and one of the AX12a's light up. I can repeat this failure process by connecting the power brick and switching on the CM-5 and on removal of the power the above events take place then ...nothing until power brick is connected again. Please help me.

I did the usual checks - fuse etc. Then decided to check the power brick! Only to discovery my mains outlet was at fault. I suspect that the faults described were due to the brick drawing juice from the CM-5.
