Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Keep the robot on a stable surface and avoid interrupting power during any firmware operations.
Soft reset:
- Turn OFF the main power switch for 1 minute, then ON.
- Try a factory reset if supported (refer to your model's manual).
Firmware recovery:
- Connect the robot to the Proscenic app (if possible) and check for firmware updates.
- If an update is available, apply it while the robot is on the dock with stable Wi‑Fi and power.
Advanced: If E20 persists and the robot cannot boot normally, the mainboard or internal communication bus may be damaged. This requires professional service and likely mainboard replacement.
