STR-DN1080 Randomly turning on

[FarleyUK]

Just recently, my DN1080 has started to turn itself on for about 10 seconds and then turn off. However, this seems to happen around every 10 minutes.

Very annoying, and I can't see any reason why. It's connected to several devices, and has Bravia sync to the TV (Sony XE9305). nothing else turns on, just the DN1080.

Please help!

Hi FarleyUK,

Welcome to the Sony Community.

Can you make sure that your Receiver has the latest firmware upgrade. You can find more details on this here.

Let me know if this helps.

Cheers,

Hi @FarleyUK

I think it may be the Bravia Sync...
Is the TV on when that hapends?

Cheers

I can confirm it has the latest firmware, and that nothing else is on when it randomly turns itself on and off.

Anyone...?

I raised a supprt request and posted on some other forums today as my amp also turned on very ealry this morning blasting out spotify louder than i have ever played music at. No other phones, tablets etc. touched as i was in bed sleeping at the time. Amp, and all other equipment has latest firmware.

Nothing else switched on, tv, virgin v6 box etc. all still switched off.

My Sony STR-DN1080 also turns its self on and off randomly. Nothing else is switched on.

I have the latest firmware.

As it is connected to the ineternet by cable I have tried swithching auto update off.

[FarleyUK]

Yeah, it's still happening on mine. Driving me crazy.

Hi FarleyUK, Iggy_H, and nigeldoc,

I think that the reason for this issue may vary from one case to the other, as FarleyUK mentioned it turns on while nigeldoc said it turns off by itself not only on.

I would recommend if any of you have a Sony Bravia TV to disconnect any other device connected to the STR as a test and leave the TV connected. If the issue repeats itself, then disconnect the TV and connect all other devices, and the output will tell us much about the reason behind this issue.

Hope this helps.

Hi

I recently bought STR-DN1080 and connected it to my TV KD-55XE8505. Both have lastest firmware installed. I do not have nothing else connected, just amp and tv. I have activated ARC aka Bravia Sync functionality in both, with auto settings where possible.

Here are my observations:

- when TV is off and I am listening to Spotify or FM, amplifier randomly switches to TV mode and after a while turns off

- when TV and amplifier are off, amplifier randomly turns on with TV mode and turns off after several minutes

- when HDMI cable is unplugged, the above symptoms do not occur (!)

What could be the reason? How can I fix that?

Best. marek
