He posted on reefcentral that he was back up and running. I never did hear what the problem was.

I am following along so that I can learn something.

I think that you have the steps set out correct. If you had the P3 then there would be no need for the jumper.
Most laptops today do not have a serial port. Therefore, I think all use the...
Yes you can use it and I think it is more stable too.
Ken
This is great news! Congratulations. I hope you did not just jinx yourself.

Always very good advice when you think that you have destroyed the heart and brains of your aquarium.

I was able to successfully download firmware "p" using usb to usb by disconnecting the powerbar. I wish I could say that this was my idea but it was not. Mathias suggested that I try it and it...
I did as you requested and I am happy to report that firmware "p" successfully uploaded using usb to usb with the digital powerbar disconnected. YEAH!
Ken
I think this is a great idea. I would also like to suggest that you consider adding a youtube element to it. I think one of the good things that bulk reef supply does is it has a great amount of...
By the way I love firmware "p."
Ken
I have used all three ways to update to firmware "p": usb to usb, usb to serial, and flasher. Flasher is a great program and was alway rock solid. Usb to serial is also stable and rock solid. I...
If you set nominal to 25 and hysteresis to 1, isn't the result that the cooler comes on at 25.5 and goes off at 25. If you want it to come on at 26 and go off at 25, would the hysteresis have to be...
I am posting this to see if my new banner works.
Please disregard.

Okay, I am now just into S/M. I did as you requested. I feel like I just set a record this time. I must have been down for only 2 minutes. But I got the same result. Error took place at the same...
I guess I am glutten for punishment. I reinstalled the driver and it recognized the new driver. So now that I am an expert on using the flasher file, I decided that I would try it all again. But I...
The issues that you raise are no different from any number of other software providers. Compatiability is a constant problem and you are correct to say that it is a catch 22 because GHL gets the...
I am supressing an urge to ask where in the manual does it say to download the USB drivers. Ha!
Ken
I downloaded one driver and the computer would not recognize it. So I gave up for now.
Ken
I think that I would dispute this at this point. At least I would say that it is a compatibility issue with Windows XP and the profilux usb cord. The connection is still a rs232 connection but is...
I completely understand. My first reaction was to look for your phone number, but then decided I am a big boy. I can do this. I reseached and found the profilux 2 instructions and even went to an...
Which is why we call it "beta."
I did go back and reinstall the firmware "p" using my usb to rs232 and had no problems reinstalling. I would say that my hands were shaking a little when I went to press the button since it took me...
You cannot keep a good reefer down.

This is what I tried to do and the system stopped in the middle of the firmware update. It would not go forward and this is where I had to have a crash course in the flasher program (great program...
