Digital Aquatics Archon Owners Thread

Okay when it goes normally, does it reboot?

no, i have done the reboot manually in all successful cases. Not sure why this is so difficult. It is certainly something that the developers can test and retest and retest. I am not the only one by the way.
 
I think you should make sure that the system reboots after the software is completed. Mine does this automatically every time and I have never had a hardware update issue.

I certainly would Lindsey if it would even update. So far on this one, it just comes back at version28. I have been a pretty loyal fan up to this point, but this is just getting stupid.
 
Sorry, I just re-read it. Sounds like we need to get it manually updated. I know how to do it if you want to try this eve or tomorrow. Pm me.
 
Has anyone that is using an Apple Router got the Archon to connect. I can see where it is connected to the airport, but if I type in the name or the IP address, I continually get an error.

I'm using an Apple router. I set it up by going into the Airport utility and assigning the Archon MAC address to a fixed IP. I'll then type that IP into a browser to connect.

What error do you get?
 
I think I may have bricked mine tonight... ugh...
Software update was fine, waited 7-ish minutes for hardware to update and nothing came back on line when I restarted it.
Software was to version 1.09.32, but hardware showed 1.01.0
I tried wiping the USB and reloading my last good file set, but now I can't even get to the system page... out of time tonight with an early show for a 2-day trip.
Might be a late night Saturday!


A new one should be on it's way this week. I'm glad I still have my RKL to fall back on.

I really hope there are plans for some sort of update status indicator. The nebulous "wait 5-10 minutes before restarting" doesn't really work. I could have been 3 seconds or 3 minutes shy of the update completing (if that, indeed, is what bricked my unit).

I'm not giving up, though. :)

Hang in there. I bricked one back in December. I have not had an issue since though.

I bricked two but this time it won't even take the SW update so I guess I am safe.:deadhorse::headwally:

Guess I am supposed to be stuck at Version 1.09.28
