2nd Relay with no power

[Rodasphoto]

I just uploaded the following code to my RA+ and none of the equipment is working. I tried resetting the controller by unplugging it and reconnecting it. When I reconnected it the red light on the controller kept flashing until I disconnected the relay expansion module from the expansion hub and reset the controller.

Code: Select all

Just checked everything and the RA has jumpers in and the relay expansion module has the dip switches set to id 2.

[rimai]

Needs to be set to id1

[Rodasphoto]

That did it. But now my controller does not seem to react to my inputs from the reef Angel app until I disconnect my pwm dimming module and reset the controller.

[rimai]

So, your wifi doesn't work when you connect the dimming module?

[Rodasphoto]

Everything works for a while then the wifi module's orange light blinks and the red status light blinks on my RA+ controller. I disconnect the PWM usb from the expansion module the wifi module starts working again. Some time passes and the whole cycle repeats itself I disconnect the PWM module, ...., etc.

[Rodasphoto]

Oh my lights are not gradually dimming like I have them programmed to. I just disconnected the pwm module and reconnected them back into the expansion module and the lights dimmed to the level it is suppose to be at.

Have you tried updating the wifi firmware?
Does the dimming module work without the wifi?
Also, you may want to try adding this to your code:

Code: Select all

  wdt_enable(WDTO_8S);

[Rodasphoto]

I have not updated the firmware on my WiFi module. How do I update it?

I just wanted to confirm I add the code you gave me in the custom code section. What does it do?

I'll disconnect the WiFi module and see if the lights dim properly. I will let you know.

It will increase the watchdog. I'm thinking you are having some of the problems that others have had and this code fixed it.
The watchdog patch is in the next release of libraries.
You can place the code in the setup() section, right after ReefAngel.Init();
Just make sure it is after and not before.

Yeah

[Rodasphoto]

I cannot connect to my WiFi module. The green light blinks followed by the orange light. I tried resetting the RA by cycling the power. I am currently on 1.07. Should I update the libraries? You mentioned updating the firmware for the WiFi, how do I go about updating it?

[rimai]

Did you check if the router didn't assign the wifi attachment a new ip address?

[Rodasphoto]

The WiFi module shows up as a wireless client on my router (apple airport extreme). I can connect to the controller for a couple of hours and then a get a bad URL error message. Then the lights don't dim properly. If I try to reset the controller with my pwm module connected it wont reset. I have to disconnect my PWM module then disconnect the controller to reset it.

[rimai]

Do you want to try the new libs?

[Rodasphoto]

Yes. i really miss being able to control the RA from my phone.

[rimai]

Download the latest dev branch: https://github.com/reefangel/Libraries/archive/dev.zip
Unzup it.
Replace your folder \Documents\Arduino\libraries with the one you downloaded.
Upload your code again.

[Rodasphoto]

I just updated the libraries and uploaded the code again. Now the green light on the wifi module blinks and I am still unable to connect.

[dbmet]

Have you run the wifi utility?

[Rodasphoto]

Have you run the wifi utility?

I ran it when I first received the Wi-Fi module.

[Rodasphoto]

Updated the firmware and reran the wifi utility. Everything seemed for OK. But when I woke up today the system was not responsive. I had to unplug my PWM module and power off the RA controller to get it to unfreeze then plugged my PWM module back in. I don't know what else to do.

[rimai]

Are you sure you updated the libraries with the dev branch?

[Rodasphoto]

I downloaded the files you asked me to took the old libraries out and placed the new ones in its place. I will retry it tomorrow and check back with my results.

[Rodasphoto]

I just reloaded the code with the new libraries. The arduino software states its version 1.0.9. Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping this time everything works as it should.

[Rodasphoto]

Reloaded the new library and eureka it works.
