OBi200 power LED flashing red and green

All our devices are on a timer. They turn off at night and start in the morning.

Just now noticed that OBi 200 power LED is blinking red and green. I power cycled the device but it didn't change anything.

A quick google search leads me to https://www.obitalk.com/info/faq/Troubleshooting-sec/power-light-meanings It says, the power went out while the firmware update. The link to the troubleshooting guide goes to 404.
I found an alternative link https://www.obitalk.com/info/support/troubleshooting but I am unable to find a link to the firmware.

Does anyone have a link for the firmware?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance

It's in an appropriately titled sticky thread in this very section of the forum.

(When you have your OBi sorted out, perhaps a visit to your optician would be in order!)

Thank you for your reply.

I actually did notice the sticky but the firmware listed in the thread is from 2019. When I did a bit of googling to understand the flashing light, I read that power loss during firmware upgrade would be a cause. So I assumed that there is a newer version.

Why are you removing power from all your "devices" every night?  That's really asking for trouble.

I have this problem too (and my thinking was the same .. combined with the relative non-lived-in look of the forums..). And, updating the firmware does nothing to solve the problem. Same with you OP?

Don't get your hopes up but it is worth trying a factory reset as per Step 2 of https://www.obitalk.com/info/faq/Troubleshooting-sec/How-to-Factory-Reset
