hmm, that's exactly the same as before! I wonder if I copied the correct build to dropbox?
did a full rebuild and uploaded another copy just in case

I'm opening the cottage tomorrow, so hopefully I'll be able to get some real data to work with.

Hi Graham, I will delete and reload,  will advise if I see pattern again this evening. 

Have a good time at the lake.   :)

Hi Graham, just noted some long(er)  BLACK sections in the SOCbar.. hope this capture shows it. Yes it does, and what I was trying to capture was a series of ~ 30 second  black bars which happened as the amps dropped in both the solar and  battery...  ??

Black represents 'resting'

Green is bulk and blue is float

OK we are just into that on /off part of a cloudy evening,even though the sun should still be up, its 18:55.... thanks Graham,

I just saw where the PV was just above zero, flat lined,  and then the  battery line drooped and there was no black in the Soc bar..so RESTING makes sense

The yellow is the current being supplied by the classic to the batteries or load and the turquoise is the current measured by the whizbangjr, negative values indicate a load or discharge
I'm not charting the current from the panels

Thanks for clarifying that Graham, I seldom use the gen to charge so am kind of stuck in the solar only rut...

Here is this mornings capture, looks like that repost version is right on...The blue one and a ' RED ' one from last night as the supply got down to zero.

I have an updated beta apk in the dropbox location (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z04q8hpw5ibpwfd/AACbRXpllos-IuLR6Z4pGWska?dl=0) if you would like to help me test it.
...

Andy,
I also added a new setting to disable the system view when each classic is independent (not in follow me mode, separate batteries...). When in this mode, the SID for PVOutput is assigned to the current selected controller, allowing you to have a PVOutput for each CC.
When the 'System View' is not checked, the app should only connect to one CC at a time. Make sure you restart the app after you uncheck the setting to make sure it disconnects from the other CC.
There was a lot of changes to the code to support this, especially the PVOutput uploader, it will need a fair amount of testing before it can be published to google play.

Let me know if this setting works for you.

...

Andy,
have you had a chance to try the new release (2.4.2) with the 'System View' feature unchecked?
this feature will restrict the app to only connecting to one classic at the time.

Oh Graham I am sorry, I missed it.
I had downloaded the 2.4.2
but - how ever - didn't see in the post that you have changed it - my apologies!

I will be at home in ~ 6hrs and check and report immediately :)

Graham,

sorry don't work like expected

If one Tab has both found, the other finds both but can nothing do with themm.
If one has only one Classic, the other can sometimes connect to the other, but displays no alias. Then like it is now, the other show the IP in the headline and "blinks" "- (RUHEND" (what was it in english, ehm "resting") and in the gauges in the same rhythm the needles come up for a flash of a second

With 2.4.2 I am not getting data uploaded to PVOutput.org  Had been working previously. Have System View unchecked. Have tried the Reset button also but no luck. 5/18/16 is last data.

Do you have more than one classic on your network?
