Local App software

[Vern Faulkner]

Two days ago, I installed the local app, plugged the 150 classic into the router and bingo: had data.

Now it doesn't read the classic at all. I've checked cables, rebooted the router, tried loading the program anew onto the Xp side of my XP/Ubuntu dual-boot laptop, tried using static rather than DCHP: nottin'

The ONLY thing I did was on the main computer (Vista machine), was change the name of the 150. However, that "took" and ran without an issue for 20 minutes, until I shut the 'pooter down and went to bed.

Next morning: nada.

Also, I have had ZERO success using the given instructions for installing the USB driver. (So no, I can't upgrade firmware, because I can't connect the classic to the computer by USB.)

Try rebooting the Classic, we have a known bug that causes this to happen.

Doesn't stay working for long - I'm loathe to reboot the classic every 12 hours. Does a firmware upgrade fix this? I've got something six months outta date (at the office, can't recall what I have accurately.)

As of now the bug is still there. Andrew is working feverishly to fix this and may have already. I will talk to him today and see how it is going.

My Midnite Solar Status Panel Data tab is reporting Lifetime Values of 12.1Kwh which is about correct for the little over 3+ days since install but it is reporting Ah of 3,284,197.2 which seems just a bit high  .

My  Amp Hours says 429,494,369.8 which is kind of insanely high.

And here is a screen shot:



This was going on before I upgraded it last night so not "new".

Hi Tom,  Yes that is what is happening to mine. The Ah on the daily values Increments about 1000 amp hours per click of the float time clock to about 32,000 Ah then goes -32,000 and begins to count up again. I did a power up reset of the Classic last night and today the Lifetime Values Ah reads 843.6 which seems about correct. The daily Ah remain very strange.

Since the Classic did not have a properly working Amp-Hour function early on, (it does now),
some older Classics may show very large life-time amp-hour values.

I think we better make a way to reset that !  OK, coming up soon then !

Figured it was something of the sort.

Hind sight is 20/20 they say.

Sorry to pick apart your work but I figure you want to know about "issues"

I only received my unit from Arizona Wind and Sun Last week and presumably it was new. Is it New old stock then?

If you look at the serial number and pass it on they probably can tell exactly when it was built and maybe even by who?

Hmmm...  That is a pretty new Classic.  I'm pretty sure that it (rev 1070) is good to go on the Amp-Hours so
should not have large A-hour values.   You should be able to see daily amp-hours on the MNGP (LCD)
screen.  Just press the STATUS button and it will roll over to a status screen where kW-hours changes
to amp-hours, and of course, other status screens.

So, let's see if it is the Classic itself or the  Local App status panel reading the wrong register maybe.

Amp hours is not functional in the production code as of yet I do not believe? Try clicking the Status buton once and see if KWH changes to Amp Hours on the MNGP

Tom,

My amp hours yesterday showed almost the exact number as yours, this morning it says KWH 2534.1 and AH 6559.3
