Yes, the Client uses the same protocol to communicate with the controller

Not sure if this si the appropriate place for this, but ... I was trying to adjust the memory settings today and the Client crashed with this report. After the crash I was unable to establish communications until I rebooted the PC.

uninstalling Client Suite 2.2

I had something to do with one of the values being out of range, if I'm not mistaken.
If you go ahead and load one of the internal memory PDE files, it should correct the problem.
I think what happens is the Client pulls a value in the memory that was never initialized and it falls out of range of what the Client is expecting and it just generates an error.
I started getting that same exception tonight after trying to go through the simple (unfortunately not so for me tonight) process to calibrate the pH sensor. Any time I try to set the values that I got on the pH calibration screen on the RA unit (I followed the procedure in another post, but when I would switch from the 7.0 to 10.0 solution, the 7.0 value would get messed up - either going to the 10.0 value around 828, or falling from 538 to 411). So I figured I would note the values, then go into the Memory tab in the client and set them there.
The client shows the DB and Dev Lib versions (2.2 and 0.8.5.19 respectively) but when I fill in the calibrated values of 538 and 828 and click Save, I get that "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" exception.
Values on the General tab look correct. I can confirm wifi is working correctly since I can get to the port 2000/wifi page and toggle the relays (can hear the click).
I did have to reload RA code through Arduino earlier tonight. After doing the pH calibration a couple times to try to get it right, the display started showing garbage where the pH display was supposed to be. This would come back after a power off/on. So I reloaded the code and that seems to have gotten the basic functions back again. Except for the Client being able to set the Memory values.
I did try your suggestion to reload the Memory file I saved with RAGen through Arduino IDE. This went OK and without errors, but didn't seem to clear anything that is preventing the Client from configuring the memory. No errors in the log. Maybe I am not understanding correctly what it means to "go ahead and load one of the internal memory PDE files".
Thanks for any advice.

Did you initially load a internal memory PDE file?]
You can create one on RAGen and also add the pH values in there too

I did but will try again.
Does the internal memory ever get corrupted? Not sure if I mentioned in previous posts but along the way yesterday after trying calibration the RA was not properly turning on the relay box and had garbled text on the screen (ie not readable as text, I have pictures if you are interested). If there are such problems is there an initialization process I should go through? Thanks....
Re: Client Suite 2.2

What you describe is usually non-initialized memory that you are reading.
The new libraries due to be release any day now, will even force you to load a memory file or it won't allow you to run the controller. This way it there is no chance of reading un-initialized memory.
I would consider very hard to get corrupted memory, but it could happen.
setting reconnect timeout
Posted: Tue Feb 21, 2012 6:39 am
by rossbryant1956
In my laziness (and impatience) I would like to change the 2 minute re-connect time that the client uses to reconnect to RA after waking up.
I am like Calvin of "Calvin and Hobbes" when faced with having to put something in the microwave for 60 seconds, says, " Who's got 60 seconds??!??"
Pls advise if this setting is configurable so I can get back to my microwave. Thx

Yeah, it's been one of the more requested features for sure. The next version still has a 2:00 countdown, but when in countdown mode, the text is a clickable hyperlink that does the reconnect action immediately.

I added this functionality a little while ago and I'm honestly considering not releasing with it built in anymore.. For whatever reason the performance with WifiAuthentication() is quite poor. I'm not sure if the problem is with the controller authenticating or the Client's method of communicating with the controller but I will say if I do include it, I will strongly recommend against using it..

DOn't know if this have been asked, but this work with IP address like the portal?? and if so, do i need to do something with the controller to send/receive data from it, cause i install it, and put the same IP:port in installation than my portal but i don't get anything.

I am having issues with trying to set up the Client suite with the new libraries. Is 2.2 compatible with the 0.9.2 Libraries? The suite is opening the port and listening but timesout due to the controller not responding. I have switched cpu's, started fresh, and even tried to just load a pgm with only wifi defined and still no response. The controller does flicker when it connects and disconnects so I think the suite is getting to the controller but the controller is not responding. I am using the controller without the wifi box. Any help would be great.

It should work.
Make sure the com port on the Client is the same used on Arduino.
Go to Arduino menu Tools->Serial Port. Write down the com port that is check marked.
Then go to Client menu Settings->Modify, change to General Tab and see if the same com port is being used.
If not, click on Launch Service Dash and change it.
I know you mentioned this already, but make sure that you enable wifi by using the newest version of RAGen, click the tab features, make sure that wifi is checked and click the button save.

Sorry for not updating this thread in awhile. I know you guys have been waiting awhile for a new version of the Client. Truth be told I've been dealing with a large dose of life lately and haven't had much time to work on the reefing hobby. Even my tank is showing the effects lately.
More to the point though, I'm very close to another release and have been for sometime. The only thing holding me back is the new 0.9.x integration and some small bugs when pulling data from the portal. I'm going to make it a point to get as much done as I can on it this weekend and hopefully have something for you guys very soon. I finally upgraded my controllers version of the dev libs from a very old 0.8.5.17 version to the latest and am coding in some changes for it right now.
I hope to be more active on the forums in the future and get my tank back in order as well. I'll keep everyone updated as to what's going on with the next release. Keep an eye out for a new thread explaining changes in the 3.0 version of the suite.
Sorry for my absence.

I have noticed this too in the past. In my case I stopped and restarted the Service Dash. It seemed to be something to do with the wifi communication link. I had not changed any settings, so even to this day I am not sure exactly what it was.

Im having an issue installing Cliente Suite 2.2. It starts the install the gets to the error message then uninstalls.
I have removed .net framework 4 and reinstalled and redid the updates for it but I still get the same error message.
I'm using Windows Home 7 64bit
