I have the profilux3 which was upgraded from the pIIplus I now get alot of communication errors 61,41,60 etc. I alwys have to log out from the control program unplug my usb cord then restart the control and then plug in the usb to connect. also over sometime the control program just freezes and I get a not responding message from the pc.I have firmware 5.00 to 5.00
if anyone knows a common solution to this problem if you could please help me!!
this happens to me all the time with my USP and PII also.. I am thinking I need to buy a LAN after I just sold one dirt cheap LOL...
update to latest fw p and use the last PLC 5.0.0.12.
best to upgrade your FW via serial , or serial USB converter,
if you update directly via USB port disconnect your powerbars first read more here (http://www.aquariumcomputer.com/Foru...8&postcount=32)
Hello, I have a P3 runing firmaware 5.05f, & Profilux Control 5.0.5.3, I'm using a Mac running VMWare fusion, & Windows XP, I can connect to P3 via USB without problem, but when trying to use LAN, it's very eratic, Profilux Control crashes, there is a popup "Scanning for Network" that keeps poping up in an endless loop.
I never use the scanning option , most of the time it never finds the P3.
I just get the ip of my P3 and manual add it to plc
That's what I have done, but I'm still getting communication errors, I have setup static address on the Profilux, & configured ip address within Profilux control, vmware is configured in bridge mode so it's on the same LAN segment.
I hope someone can help me.
I keep getting a a message while trying to connect:
'No device has been found at all COM-ports!'
I tried all 4 USB-ports on my computer.
The drivers of the serial-USB adapter have been installed.
After trying all ports for 50 times, it will connect once.
If I disconnect the USB cable after that, problems that once again.
This is really annoying. Hope anyone knows how to fix this.
I already tried the option: RS485 delay
My OS: Windows Seven 32-bits
ProfiluxControl 5.1.0.0

Hello,
have you already read this link: http://www.aquariumcomputer.com/Foru...ase-read-first!
Does your serial/USB-adapter contain the chipset FTDI or Prolific?
Do you use our original serial cable?
Hi,
tnx for your answer!
I assume I'm using the original serial cable.
I bought my profilux plus 2 form someone who stopped his aquarium.
This cable was included in the package.
What's strange is that I am able to connect once in a while.
But most of the time it refuses.
You think it could be the cable?
Or else I maybe forced to buy a USB extension module :S
Grtz, Chris
