Android app for the Classic

[Westbranch]

almost no colour...

Hope this  is good

See the same color as WB using Bluestacks on Win10

Graham, fyi,  I was just looking at the Hr log chart and noticed that the times  at the bottom seem to be 12 hrs off...

I only recently discovered this app and have to say it is fantastic! I do think it needs better promotion though I guess Midnite Solar has a vested interest in their own (rather sad by comparison) android local app...

It also gave new purpose to my old Asus Transformer tablet I hadn't used in years. I will now mount the 11" screen on a wall (minus the keyboard) and dedicate it to this app.

I did have a problem with it when I first tried using it; the app loading/unloading every second or two flashing between no data and real data. I'm guessing this is the same issue reported way back on the first page of this thread? I can't say why but the next day it worked fine so hopefully it stays that way.

It probably failed to read a chunk of logs from the classic, you can clear the recorded logs in the settings which will force the app to reload the logs next time it starts.
+ make sure the time on the classic is the same as your device.

Yeah, I wish I could reproduce that here, I suspect it's related to the day logs download from the classic, the app will load the day log up until the last time it read the logs, so the first time you launch the app it will attempt to read all logs from the classic, the next day it will only read the last day log. In some cases it appears to hit a log entry it can't load that triggers a re-connect.

have 2nd Classic now, connected to a psu, to network, set own IP address ... app works and can easy switch between the classics

one idea, will it be possible to set an pv-output account for each Classic?
optional akkumulating for one account, like now, and other option for an account for each Classic?

thanks

I'll add it to my list of requested feature,
If you can find a cheap android device (or root an amazon kindle...)  you could dedicate one to the upload of  each of your classics. Some people are mounting the device next to their equipment.

yeah I bought an Amazon Kindle Fire 7 inch when they were on sale recently for $40 and rooted it , changed operating system to add Playstore, and loaded up Classic Monitor and it looks great on it.

Hi Graham,

a wish - again -

have now 2 Classics in use,
also port forward in the router to both Classics, so I can connect from my phone to the Classics.
I set my URL and port number for the first, and set these datas for the second Classic in the App. It works.
But in the headline I only see the URL, not the name of the Classic, so I can not distinguish them.

Can you add the Classic's name to the headline?
Appears only, when set the direct IP address and connectet in the local lan

Thanks

2 weeks ago I testet Android 6 on my X1072, App was running well on it


(but I have regretted the error to update to 6, it is possible to make Android even more worse then 5 and so I am back on 5.0.2 - it is really not recommende to go higher then 4.4 ... but 5.0.2 is the oldest Android for this device, sadly. Looking now for a newer 4.x phone brick that fits my needs... )

Hi Graham, i have a strange question. Yesterday I added a password to the WiFi router at the cabin, cause I got tired of AVAST giving me  an error message as it told me the system was dangerous, all alone at the lake, and only the neighbours cabin , randomly....so I changed the P/W and set about entering the P/W on my laptop and wife's Surface... 
then the TAB4....  it would not connect and I get a little triangle in the list of Machines. This is after going into settings and adding the P/W so I have a NET  connection.

I assume the "Classic 29032" showing in the sliding tab is in memory.

So am I right that I have to clear all data and  then let it auto connect?

I think you slide the old network  to the left and it erases the old system , and then let it auto find it again. I did something like that on my Android when I switched some stuff around.

Yes, that's correct, with the nav bar open, slide the item to the right to delete it then let it auto detect a new connection (assuming you have auto detect enabled).
