Well, its hard to teach an old dog (me) new tricks.

From one old dog to another - I know what you mean -I was just razzin' ya all.. .  But if you can learn Kilo-watt hours then you can learn centigrade.

Its all good.

Yes it is. :)

Well the real issue was that the Classic is C only and the local app was showing F and C the data is saved as C so that was confusing. We all need to harass boB to get the classic showing F.

Consider boB harassed !! Now who was confused, never really saw any comments on this issue on the forums. So bring back the F and wait until boB has time. I'd rather see him working on the software for the MNBM myself. We have been wait for that functionality for a while now.

Unfortunately it wasn't the forums where the problems were, it was all the technical assistance calls Ryan was getting in the middle of the night!

That is where most of our design decisions come from!

Good to know he answers the phone in the middle of the night.

Never know when a guy might need a ride or bail. ;=<>

It seems to work great.

It would be nice to get readings in F. I'm also an old dog, I'll try a new trick but won't be very good at it and they make me cranky.

Thanks again I like it

Hi,

Centigrade is easy: 0=freezing & 100=boiling (for water at sea level and atmospheric pressure that is).

Yes, most of us old american dogs understand that, it is the fact that we don't do 5/9 -32 in our heads real well

But monitoring temperatures is all about trends. Absolute values are less important.   Battery and PV panel manufactures use centrigrade in their temperature coefficients, so I can't see how knowing the temp in farenheit helps - though I do understand it might feel more comfortable seeing the number with a F after it instead of a C.

I know my basement where the batteries are is about 60f, I know my batteries run between 70f and 74f. when they get to 76f it is time to water them. I am just more comfortable seeing 70f than 20c.

dbcollen

found another bug, on the config>advanced tab. with aux 2 set to "waste not high" the values are volts "30" width "1" no matter what you set the volts to, in my case -.1v it always resets to volts "30" on the tab.

Phew lotsa bugs. Thanks for catching them dbcollen, I'll take a look.

I'm having an issue where the Local App keeps disconnecting from the Classic (or vice-versa). Every 1-2 minutes it will disconnect. I keep meaning to reset the Classic, but I only remember in the middle of the day when I'm getting power, and I don't want to lose the current KWH count (because resetting the Classic resets daily KWH to 0, which I don't think it should).

Altho, the connection issue might also have something to do with me poking the Classic with my iPad app development. I think a couple of times I connected without sending a disconnect signal when I was done.
