How to fix the blinking green button issue? (Flex doesn't turn on)

Hi, I just received my 8600 and when I try to turn it on, its power button is blinking green and nothing happens. Looks like it doesn't turn on in 100% or has some firmware issues. The radio is undetectable in the LAN network, and nothing happens next.
Anyone experienced something like that and any suggestions how to fix that?

I'd be thankful for any advices.

    With most of these odd issues, a “factory reset” is a starting point. Press and hold the power button until it turns while.

    I think John meant '….turns white' :-)

    Sten… If the 'factory reset' doesn't resolve the problem, please open a Help Desk Ticket. Blinking green is a normal part of the boot up sequence, but it sounds like your rig isn't completing the boot up sequence.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
