I2C Color Code Freezes EZB

Dear robot friends, I have noticed the following issue. When BlinkM I2C is connected, the code works: I2CWrite(0,0x09,"o") and I2CWrite(0,0x09,"c",0x00,0x00,0x00). No problem at all. However, if the BlinkM is not connected and this code is started via EZ-Script, the EZB freezes. This happens with every single EZB. Therefore, if I try to control something that is not connected like I2C, the LED lights up red and the EZB freezes. Is that normal or a bug ?

This is normal behavior for the EZ-Robot EZB v4. It's looking for the device, which doesn't exist - so it locks up until rebooted.
