Updating code on my reefangel

Post by Rodasphoto »

Is there a way to update my reef angel with out it being attached to the relay box. My desktop is upstairs and my tank is downstairs.

In about a month.
There is a Bluetooth attachment in final revision that should be out next month :)

That will be a nice thing.
Even thought I have a laptop. I hate lugging it over to the tank and sitting on the floor to update the code.

I use a USB extension cable and sit on the couch. Nice and comfy. :D

I never thought of using a USB extender. I was wondering do you think this one would work?

Any update on the Bluetooth module that will allow to update wirelessly? Price?

I have 2 prototypes working.
I'm using one and the other is being used for reference prototype model.
I tried getting a few more completed, but the components I used didn't quite work for some reason.... So, I bought some more and I'm waiting for delivery.
