Pre loaded code
Pre loaded code
Ok I am really new at this. I have had my RA up and running for a while with the preloaded code that came on it. I decided today to mess around and try a few different INO files, but decided that for now, I just want to re-load the factory file it had. Well, I clicked "restore pre-loaded code in the Arduino program and uploaded it with no issues, problem is, this is not the preloaded code I had before! I was able to set up my daytime and actinic strength levels from the main menu on the controller, and I had a whole lot more menu items than this preloaded code has. Where can I get my old preloaded code??? Ive looked at so many different codes today that now I cant really remember what I had before :/ Help!
Re: Pre loaded code
Did your old preloaded code have the words "Reef Angel" at the bottom or had the words "Reef Angel Demo" on top?

Re: Pre loaded code
yes It definitely had "Demo" at the top.

Re: Pre loaded code
Yes thats it! But I uploaded it and now I cant select any options???
Re: Pre loaded code
with the toggle, when I try to select any of the menu options, it does nothing, I cant enter any of the menu items 1 through 14. I cant even exit.
Re: Pre loaded code
I can scoll thru but cannot select by pushing down on the joystick.
Re: Pre loaded code
I am pretty sure I have RA, not plus.
Re: Pre loaded code
I got the same results.
That code is so old and has not been updated with everything that has been developed since.
It's got to be something that has been updated on the new Arduino IDE or our libraries and I'm not going to even try to find what the problem is.
I have a compiled version of that code that will work though.
Unzip the file and open the file loadReefAngelSimple.bat on notepad.
Change the COM3 to whatever serial port you are using.
Save the file and double-click to execute it.
Let me know if you have problems.

Re: Pre loaded code
Sorry to be a pain. Cant load it. Im getting "The program can't start because libusb0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
Re: Pre loaded code
I guess you need an older version of avrdude too.
Try this one.

Re: Pre loaded code
I think the only way is to use an older release of everything.
http://www.reefangel.com/files/reefangelinstaller.exe
The current preloaded code has almost everything the other one had it though.
Why do you want to use the old code?

Re: Pre loaded code
The one I loaded from Arduino has almost nothing the old one had. I just liked the ability to adjust my light intensity from the main menu. Plus it just looked better. I plan on writing my own anyway, I just liked the idea I could fall back on the old code until I can devote enough time to learn how to write my own.
Re: Pre loaded code
The current preloaded code has it too.
Download the user manual which explains each menu. It would be Lights->LED PWM

Re: Pre loaded code
I couldnt figure that out, but I will try again. Thanks for all your help.
Re: Pre loaded code
Should I do that through the Arduino program, or the RAgen?
Re: Pre loaded code
Great thanks again Roberto.
