    Now my Solix gen 3 starts up by itself

    Last two trips I turn on the master switch and my solix at the console turns on. It doesn’t happen with the xplore and other solix gen 3 up front. All have the latest updates which actually fixed my xplore turning on by itself. Very odd indeed. Other than that everything is fine and just to make sure I did ensure all three had latest update. Any of you noticed units starting up on their own?

    I've never seen a Solix or Apex automatically power on when power is applied. Very strange.

    My Helix G4n will sometimes power back on after I power it off... not every time, but often enough to mention it. I just power it back down again, but it is odd.
