Doser 2.1 firmware update

[sveOne]

Hi!

Just updated my doser for the first time.. all went good, expect all my fill levels are lost..

I backed up the configuration and had to restore it during the process. I manually looked in the backup file but could not find
where this info is stored, if it is backed up at all.. which I really hope it is....

Can someone enlighten me?

Hin

Which GHL Control Center version?

 

[sveOne]

1.1.3.7

 

[Gaël]

strange because it's a issue fixed since 1.1.3.5

 

[sveOne]

Very! 1.40 is bundled with 1.1.3.7 right ?

 

[Lasse]

Yes - but from which did you do the update - if it was below 1,37 - it maybe not work

TBH I dont remember exact what firmware it had to begin with. But I did go straight to 1.40, but I did it with 1.1.3.7..

You would think that GCC would know what it needed to do a proper backup and warn me .. but no

 

[sveOne]

Just checked the backup.. I was on firwmware 1.35

It is not the firmware the problem but the version of GCC used.
Before GCC 1.1.3.5 filling level was never saved or loaded (it wasn't in the ParaDef file).

As stated, I did the backup and firmware update with 1.1.3.7. 100%, because I did a fresh install of GCC to a laptop to be able to do it thru USB. I normally run GCC thru wifi, and wanted to be sure everything went smooth. The wifi on the 2.1 is not that fond of my mesh network always That is kind of the reason why I was running 1.35 also.

Is there anywhere where it tells you the description of the firmware updates? I basically want to know if any of thr new updates will allow you to manually set your dose schedule at more than 8 intervals or automatically set your doses over a 12hr schedule vs 24hr.

I run FW 1.36 on my slave doses. I think the new is 24 doses/24 H. I run 18 and it works

To run the automatically dose during 12 hours is possible if you create a "virtual" doser with automatic dosing of the double amount- Let us say you want to dose 120 ml in 3 ml batches per 12 hours (it means a 3 ml dose/18 min). Create a virtual dos pump (dos 16 as example) that dose 240 ml in 3 ml batches. Create a timer (16 as an example) active for 12 hours - example between 08:00 and 20:00. Create a PL (G16 as an example) that say timer 16 AND doser 16. Create a switch channel (S16 as an example) - knit G16 to this switch channel. Got to your real pump - let us say it is doser 4. In its page - go to pump react to and chose switch channel index 16. Now your real pump will dose 3 ml every 18 min between 08:00 and 20:00
