I'm pretty sure in the past iv'e posted re: activating a function on the meter that put up an 'Hammer' icon at top right of the screen - see pic, but i can't for the life of me remember what the option provided or what button pressing sequence i did to show the option.
Nothing in the HDRanger+ or the HDRanger-2 manuals and not found anything on the forum search - any help to jog my memory appreciated.

Just looking at the boot sequence messages Llew and i think the mystery 'Hammer' Icon is to do with something called 'Service Mode' - - investigating further
*Edit .... Problem solved, no further action required.

You need to press a button in the settings for a few settings to activate this. If needed I have it documented.

Might be an idea to share with the other members what this signifies @John.
