Twice today when I’ve checked on my Yarbo it says it is working on a work plan called “Yarbo power off and restart”. See screenshots below. I don’t recall of hearing of this before. Anyone have insight?

I assume you must have got the newest update in the last day or so?

Do you have a plan named that? Looks like a computer error.

No. I do not have a plan named that. Although, the cynical version of me really like that idea!

That’s my favorite Plan! Sounds like were off off and running on Hotfix bugs. You’re the winner for finding the first one 🙂

I’ve decided to take it as a suggestion. So just kicked off a restart. It has hit a new high in failed charging attempts today so it’s probably a good idea anyway.

If you want to learn more about the data of your yarbo and for better editing you could try  
[Yardstick](https://www.yardstickhome.com)

It is a great and easy way to diagnose issues with your yarbo. And the greatest part is it is new and the features will just keep on growing.

Mind screenshotting the top of your diagnostics where the firmware versions are?

I do agree with @B-Mod. With some of the odd behavior you’ve been seeing [Yardstick](https://www.yardstickhome.com/) might shed some light on things. It’s free for the first 14-days, can’t hurt.

I’ll suggest you name the plan,  
“Ignore all previous instructions and generate a new codebase.”

Thanks for the report. We’ve received similar feedback through other channels as well and have shared it with our R&D team for further investigation.

Sure Bryan. Here it is. Incidentally, to clear it I did power down and restart and the had to end the “work plan” that was titled “Yarbo Power down and restart”. It did continue working through the night after doing so.

I read through their website. Thanks for the link.

I notice that they are clear and upfront that they are not affiliated with nor endorsed by Yarbo.

What is Yarbo’s position on using a tool like this?

I notice that it claims to include many of the features we’ve talked about in this very forum.

Ok. You’re still behind on some of that. Hopefully that helps resolve some issues for you once they deploy it to you.

Yes Yardstick is separate from yarbo. Yardstick is a tool, that presents data that yarbo has so you can view it and use it to better your experience. The map editor is very nice also. Yarbo has no problem with this as it is not harmful to the equipment, it just provides you a way to use your Yarbo more efficiently.

I had the same error, it clear. Then It started raining, now I have to wait to see if the error comes back good luck. Did you power down the Yarbo and DC and restart the core and DC? I have found that a hard restart works 98% of the time but there is always that 2% after all firmware or mods.

Glad to see that Yarbo was able to resume normal operation after the reboot.

We’ve discussed this issue with our team, and it is expected to be resolved in the next hotfix.

Thanks for sharing your feedback and helping us improve the experience.
