Hi Magnus,
How fresh is your battery? If you have not changed it out in the last few months put a DVM on it and check the voltage. The other issue I have had when my Gemini 1 acted weirdly like this was resolved by replacing the USB to RS232 serial converter with a new ATEN USB to RS232 converter. IF this works you may have a bad or at least failing I/O ship in your Gemini 1 controller. Contact Michael Herman on this list and see if he can work you into the schedule for a repair.?
