Anyone on the new stable yet?
I’ll wait a bit myself. If anyone is a gremlin catcher, it’s me🥴

Everyone's gremlins are different and at different stages of undernourishment. As such, results will vary, inverter to inverter. Your gremlins are not necessarily my gremlins. But, then again, I like to keep mine hungry.

Downloading now for my 6000xp.
 
Additional automatons is the only difference I have noticed.
Haven't dug into it.
 
I like it, when updates add features and functions.
Not, when they remove them.
And there's no option to revert.
I lost my quick link to inverter settings on the power management page.
Going to have to retrain my brain to do it the other way.
 
please go on, what does the automation allow the user to do?
It allows time of day triggers on any setting in the 6000xp page.
This will be very useful to me.
It pretty much can manipulate any setting but nothing fancy.
It still doesnt do anything with SOC.


I would like an automation to revert to grid at voltage AND a specific load.
 
Interesting for sure, at least they are working on some updates.

I don't want to loose my Power Manager, will stick with current version for now.

Just updated second Pi. (Batteries)
No changes. Still no delta.
Darn, the delta is what I really wanted.
I guess I wait.

You can get to the old page by going to Configuration/inverter/settings

I guess that it's not really a big deal. (For me)
I think that the last time I changed any inverter settings was several months ago.
But, change is hard for this old guy.
My biological RAM is filling up and getting slower.

You can go back. 1: backup your history data to the PC. 2: Format the SD card you’re using. 3: load the desired version on your SD card and get it running on the pi. 5: import your history from the backup you just saved in step 1.

I think I have a copy of the last stable version on my work computer if you don’t have it

I have orange Pi's
No SD cards

And, all of that computer talk hurts my brain.
I use my computer for watching videos and movies. lol
