New GCC 1.0.8.4 and firmware - Seasonal Lighting is here!

Hello Matthias,

Can you confirm me one thing, is moon phase start and end time also adjusted with seasonal lighting?
If not, it's a problem, moon phase simulation must start when night coming and stop when day begin.
Moonlight is set to start at 22h and stop a 6h, its ok in June, but in December, with seasonal lighting day begin at 8H45 and end at 17H15.

Thank :-)

Hi,

there are udates available.

The firmware for Mitras LX and ProfiLux 3, both included in this GCC version, had been updated.
Please update your devices with the new versions in case you have already the previous beta versions.

There was a problem when ProfiLux controlled the Mitras via wireless-card PLM-PWC, the seasonal lighting was not transmitted in this scenario. All fixed now.

This is a good point. Right now the moon phase simulation is not shifted, but we will add this in 6.28. This is larger job and needs time and thinking.

Ok, thank for all Matthias :-)

Also for the moonlight sudden lighting change problem. You said me "not easy to solve but I have some ideas to improve that."
Hope you will find solution for that too, for moment i use this tip:
Attachment 8304
But i don't like this solution.

PS: now you have done this awaited feature maybe you will have time for other lack thing like flow sensor alarm during Maintenance, unreported VorTech alarm or add refill option for doser in Profilux LCD screen.

Thank :-)
