APEX shut down system and rewired, now all blinking

[scott11106]

i wanted to re-wire all of my stuff so i shut it down rewired and remounted everything and now it is back up and most of the apex stuff is blinking. eb8's are bling and not showing power consumtion but some stuff is on and running but cant control anything with on/off

Try unplugging your display unit and restart via Old Apex dashboard.

also seems nothing is connected..

If this doesn't work then unplug everything and re-start. Then add one module at a time and see if there is one module that is giving you issues.

ok, that makes sence.
I have it down to one eb8 not reporting power consumption and if i plug anything into the aquabus is kicks the entire system off

Go through the quick start sequence as though it were a new set-up. Step by step and report back.

Unplug all components. Plug in the eb8, then connect the brain. Press the little reset button and wait for light to go solid. Then plug in display and you should be up and running

i have 3 eb8's, should i plug all 3 in or 1 at a time?

Plug in 1 at a time.

You should never have two display modules, only 1 and it is always assigned aquabus address 1. This may well be the source of your problem. I would disconnect everything but one EB8 and the display module, delete the display at address 2, reboot, see if that fixes anything, and if so, then re-add the other modules.

i dont have a display module (not even sure what that is but i assume a display device sold by neptune), but i do have 3 eb8's

One at a time and display is the display screen to view temp, ph etc

ok, thanks
should i delete the displays since i only use the app to view (no physical display) or ?

If you have no display, should have nothing to delete However if it shows display active, deactivate it

 

[scott11106]

i actually got on with support and they also instructed to delete them, then some other modules decided to grab a new port so that threw me but it is all fixed now. and what started this whole thing, the asm module was bad and i had to send it off to be fixed/replaced

 

[vetteguy53081]

There you go. Not always apex's fault. Electronics around water Rarely mix

Check to see if there's an AOS update. I've had an apex not come back one because it started downloading an update, and my power went out.

 

[scott11106]

thanks for the input, i think everything is running great except i had to send the ASM PMK box was the problem so it went off to neptune systems to get fixed.

There actually is a new update available for Apex
