LCD randomly starts flashing (and won't update portal)

Post by jedimasterben »

Hello all,

I noticed an issue a few weeks ago where the LCD screen on my RA just starts flashing colors, mostly white. When it does this, all relay and timing functions still work as they are coded to, but the portal will not be updated.

I'll try and get a video of the screen today, if it starts it up again. It doesn't do it all the time, but I don't like the portal not getting updated :)

If I pull the power on the relay unit, after it gets power again, it goes back to normal. Is there maybe an easier way to reboot the controller without having to do it manually?

This is happening to mine as well since I installed my pwm module and changed a jumper in the head unit for the pwm module to work... and now my pH probe keeps on giving me a reading 1...???
