Direto XRT powered by battery

Hello
I setup my Direto XRT in my shed powered via a 12V battery that is charged by a solar panel. I fitted a voltage stabilizer between the battery and the Direto to protect it from surges and dips in the voltage from the battery.

I expected it to work unfortunately it didn't. The Direto display shows three blinking blue lights which i see on other posts on the forum indicates a problem with the power supply.

The output from the stabilizer is a constant 12.12V. The stabilizer is rated as 12V and 10A. The output from the supplied PSU is 12.23V. Can you tell me what I need to change or what is not right?

Many thanks in advance for your help.
Peter

Hi

The blue led indicates that the board is not properly powered.
The problem may be the current and not the voltage (by the way, we require 12V and 1.5A)
