Web panel stuck on boot screen

ShaheerNawaz22 · December 2024

I have a WP 6156-WHPS - Web panel and out of the blue the screen now gets stuck on the Phoenix Contact default boot screen once I power it On.

If I connect a network cable to my PC and search on the IP address it returns 502 bad gateway along with nginx/1.20.1.

What could be going wrong? Has the file system somehow corrupted? Would a firmware update overt micro-sd help?

Hello Shaheer,

When you perform a firmware update with a SD card, the panel goes back to factory state, so this will be a good start for solving the problem.

If it doesn't work please let us know.

For some reason while following the steps of the manual for microsd firmware 4.x, I do not get a .wic file after unpacking the .zst file with PeaZip.

Could you share a firmware link for version 3 with micro sd?

I could then workaround this unpacking issue and later update to firmware 4 with a USB.
