The release branch is quite old and hasn't been updated in a few years. As we've moved to the web wizard we can keep it up to date much easier. The RA libraries work just fine with the latest dev branch, you just get the compile errors but it does work. The bluetooth adapter just gives you a serial link over bluetooth to do the updating instead of using serial.

As far as the release branch, I was looking at it the other day and thinking it's probably a good time to update the master branch :) Overall that would be Roberto's call and will probably require re-packaging the local Arudino client which was quite a pain in the butt honestly, but I do affirm that if you download the latest and replace the libraries with the DEV branch you should be OK aside from the verbose compiler output.

Hi, I have a Reef Angle Star and have amended the code through the Web Wizard. The code is compiled successfully and I have also the Plug in found and connected in blue. However I cannot connect to any port. I am using the usb cable with my pc supplied. Any idea what I should do, cause I cannot upload the code on the unit.

Thanks

Go to "Device Manager" on windows and expand "Ports (COM & LPT)"
Disconnect RA from the computer. Do you see any port disappear?
Now connect it back in. Do you see any port show up?

Roberto had me buy the Cloud Wifi Attachment to combat an intermittent connectivity issue with the old wifi attachment and I cannot upload.

I have a solid cyan light in the cloud module.
I have run the wizard and wrote a new code.
I downloaded and installed the plug-in, but the wizard says "Plugin was not found"
I cannot see any com ports or remote upload through the wizard, but I see them in device manager.

Any help would be great.
Thank you

I switched to edge and that fixed the plugin. Still no com ports.

Wouldn't this allow me to remote upload with out using the usb?

No. remote upload is an experimental feature available for RA* only.

Im getting somewhere. I was able to get COM5 and push an update to the controller. When I view the webpage for the controller it says disconnected. Ill start with resetting the password.

What else should I be looking at?
