I get error code 852 just about every morning on both HWSs on CUI software version U234. A WD EHD is attached to each Hopper and they both work good. Anyone else getting this and what can I do to stop it? Thanks

I don't have a Hopper and I have not seen anything posted about it that I remember. If it doesn't affect any recordings etc than I guess just clear it each day. The best thing I can think of is to unplug the EHD, restart the Hopper. After the Hopper is up and running plug it back in.

OK, thanks. I will try that out when I have chance.
 
I should have added - after plugging the EHD back in I assume you will get the message, if it has a button to acknowledge the message be sure to to that not just clear it.
OK, again thanks. One HWS is freed up now. Will get it done.

No luck Tampa8. Did the procedure on one of my HWSs and this morning when I turned on the Hopper, got the same popup window 852. No big deal, just wonder what's causing it.

My Hopper 3 has an EHD and I never see this message. [KIDDING]My guess is it's a subtle kick-in-the-tenders to get you to switch to the Hopper 3.[/KIDDING]

I don't know if the message shows up on my Hoppers when they're powered on because I have manual timers set for them to turn on every morning at 5:30 and tune to the news so they're on and buffered up for skipping commercials whenever I turn on the TV. :)
I have to click the OK button in the 852 popup to get to live TV. So I would think you are not getting the message 852 in your Hopper. My other HWS hasn't gotten the message for about a week now. Just this one Hopper has the issue. I performed the procedure in post #4, but no help.

How long have you waited without clicking the OK button? Does the message time-out eventually?

Okay. I was just thinking that if you followed JSheridan's advice and set a timer to turn the Hopper on early, then maybe the message would time out by the time you turn the TV on.
I checked this morning and yes, the message does time out after about five minutes, then the HWS fires up.
