You are connected to the controller.
You need to have the wifi attachment connected to the usb-ttl cable instead.
That's what we are trying to get configured, right?
The wifi attachment, right?

Yes sorry, have tried both, just gave it another shot this morning. Wifi is flashing quick blue and slow green, have tried the cool term connection with both 9600 and 57600 but its still not sending the $$$ string like it did last time to get the 2.32 coding message, although the controller was plugged back into the tank with PH and temp sensors attached so i might have to retry it again this afternoon when I take it off and put it on the standby relay. I am beginning to think it could be an issue with cool term perhaps?

You don't need the controller to setup the wifi attachment.
Simply plug the wifi attachment into the usb-ttl cable.

Ahhh.
There we go.
You should be able to setup the wifi attachment without messing with Cool Term then.
Use the wifi utility to set it up.
