Vive Base station blue light

[flobie]

base station was working fine for months never moved or anything then it just randomly went to a solid blue light, when I disconnect power then reconnect it it shows all 11 lights and works for like 2 minutes then it just turns to a blue light even tried with a sync cable

@flobie Based on your description, my educated guess would be that the station is entering standby mode. You can try going into SteamVR -> Bluetooth -> and Power Management; disabling that feature, and seeing it it keeps the stations on.

What channels are your stations in? When you switched over to using a sync cable, did you also switch to using channels A & B? The station that's in channel A mode is always going to be more aggressive about not going into standby - you can try ensuring that the station you're having problems with the is A station which may help.
