You have to update all aquabus devices via USB. It is recommend that you load the factory defaults of all devices afterwards and set the correct device type (if we are talking about mps devices). Make also sure that each device uses a unique aquabus ID.

As last step you should shutdown the system and also cut the power to the PSU for a few seconds because otherwise the aquaero will perform no clean start.

Major changes require an firmware update for every device - you have to connect usb for firmware updates.

Zitat

well now i know i wouldn't of updated its a major job getting to all the mps

what the point in having aquabus if everything keep needing usb ?

when i renew the water i just bin the lot and use simple stuff that don't require the desk to be taken apart for every software update

At first it seems like a pain to connect your existing devices via-USB all over again, especially if you have few of them (I have 8 in total ) but really, it only takes few min. and the new firmware seem to correct some of the previous small glitches, so its worth the effort

Keep both USB and Aquabus connected to your devices. Problem solved.

figured it out

There has been a major failure of communication in the upgrade process.


Before upgrading firmware, there needs to be a major popup that can't be easily clicked through that explains what you're signing on to do if you do upgrade.

If you upgrade, you have to:

1. Upgrade every Aquabus device to a new firmware
a. This includes disconnecting any slave Aquaero's and reflashing to original firmware (device reset) followed by a re-flash to the new slave firmware. You have to physically disconnect cables to do this, which can be a real hassle in some builds.

2. Move any flow sensors connected to Fan port 1 to the Low Speed port. The notes read that you can still connect a flow sensor to port 1. This certainly ISN'T true if you only have 2 flow sensors. Perhaps it only works on port 1 if you already have 2 flow sensors plugged into the <flow> and <aquabus low> ports.

Note: Be sure to save your current configuration first!
If you have an emergency shutdown on loss-of-flow, it can be a disaster if you load a profile and don't have things connected properly.
