Check your cables. If it happens again send it in.

As far as I know that error was fixed by a firmware update that came out shortly after the CTX was released. Do you have pinpoint lock and saltwater mode? If so the firmware was updated, if not go plug it in to your pc and upgrade it through the Exchange software.

thanks for you comments guys, it was my fault, i had uploaded some gps locations and patterns and not let it finnish uploading to the ctx before i unplugged it, check the screen on ctx before unplugging, it could still say it uploading.
a lesson learnt by me and hopefully some info for others.
